Just wanted to share my first two deals in case it helped anyone, and get some ideas myself on next steps to expand.

I can share you my neighborhood grade map to help you explore specific areas.

If you buy a mediocre investment, a good manager can save it.A good PM will also help you with your rental search.

For any noobies:  Research a ton and feel free to reach out to people nicely, you'd be surprised just how often people want to help. 

In your case though, you have to be careful when it comes to risks as there's other people's money on the line, as well as your reputation and your ability to raise money in the future.Hope this helps.

Hope the little info helps.
