There was plenty of time to work 60+ hours, exercise, manage real estate, and have a social life...it was easy. 

You can also buy lists from companies like list source and there are some REI software companies that have a cash buyer search feature.Best way to find motivated sellers is to purchase lists and compile lists from city and county for 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, probate, divorce, high equity, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, foreclosure sites, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.

Don't engage anyone without reference checking.

Literally go through your phone, social media, email - all of it - and call, text, or DM. 

My criteria is 3bd/2ba SFR in B neighborhoods at 80% market value that cash flow >1%.Hope to engage with the community here to make things happen and do my best to help others out as well.Best,Vansh

I'm looking forward to engaging with new people, contributing anyway that I can to this community (albeit with limited knowledge as of now), as well as continuing my REI education.

I would add market yourself through social media and share not just your wins but the struggles you have as well people can respect that and it creates the perception you're not afraid to lay it all out there!

I would think you would be best served by engaging a Commercial Broker to sell the properties for you.

Joining the military for economic and social opportunity isn't a bad idea, but real estate benefits are quite limited. the VA loan is often a trap for new investors: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/va-loan-program-trap-rental-investors

Will keep updating and posting the project via social media.
