I want to purchase my first property pretty close to where I live (Roseville, Folsom, Citrus Heights) so I can keep a close eye on things.  

Theoretically I feel like this should work but reality, I feel like, is not this simple:Have a number of different realtors (possibly wholesalers I've established relationships with) keep an eye out for potential deals  and let me know when they come up  Have a number of financial partners and lending institutions lined up ready to JV with when deal do come up.

Rochester currently has a $5 billion city/state/private investment project for the Mayo Destination Medical Center going on.  

I've been lurking, mostly, and keeping my eyes open for possible opportunities in my area.

I have gotten pretty good at eyeing it now and don't use spacers half the time.
