Welcome to BP Shannon, glad you decided to engage the forums.

I began to engage in in-depth study of the wound estate, particularly in Florida, are now interested in your opinion and experience on the subject.Please, if you have any opinion, let's discuss.)

To determine interest in the property before putting it under contract, you might try contacting some local agents or mortgage brokers in the area to find out names of the bigger players who have a bunch of rentals in the area.

Then look for deals.So to answer your question: Investors will get the good deals from folks that understand investing and best deals from direct seller engagement, if you desire that model of engagement.

I can speak from experience that you absorb and learn more when you engage in the conversations as well!

The more you are involved and engaged, the more you will learn and the more connections you will make.Good luck to you and please let us know how we can help!

Getting involved and engaged in the forums and your education is definitely a step in the right direction.You're in a great market with A LOT of activity.

I’ve enjoyed lurking here on BP the past weeks and look forward to engaging with the community.

Hang around the forums, engage in conversations, read books, ask questions!

Wise decision :) Engaging personally takes the education to a whole other level.
