Note: I think this is a really hot area which will continue to grow given the proximity to Brooklyn, which has exploded the last few years. 2) bought my new primary 1 family forclosure home for $325 in 2016 and house hacked it to get some supplemental income, which covers ~50% of my mortgage.

The number 1 thing you should start with is meeting as many people in the business as you can.

My plan of action is to start attending REIA meetings in Austin, meet up with local investors, contact real estate agents, and consult with a law firm.

My goal is to have $20k cash in hand by April, and I am currently on track to meet that goal. 

Even in a hot market (Durham is very very hot) deals are out there!

You should go to a local REI meeting and search out who the bigger wholesalers are and pick their brains

Those prices tend to be blue collar areas with good to great schools.If you're interested we're having an Amarillo Real Estate Investors Group meeting tonight at First Capital Bank of Tx on Soncy.

Hello so I am not finding anything on RE meet ups here in the Yakima area.

I am a member of Masslandlords and find the meetings informative and their forms and advocacy invaluable.

I would love to meet you...Best regardsMarcin
