(I realize this may be an older post, but as you're getting new activity - it's relevant. 

Hello I am actively looking for my first real estate deal.

I'm an active duty US Navy Chief Petty Officer, brand-new BPer and real estate enthusiast, I got turned on to this whole game (and BiggerPockets) at the suggestion of a coworker shortly after I moved to Tampa back in July. 

You have a few options, 1) be patient 2) Give in and join them and pay up or 3) Find other asset classes to invest in.I am not patient and am too scared to pay the prices they are trading for these days so I have gone to number 3 for my personal active investments.

Normally, the longer a property sits on the market the less likely it is to sell at the initial asking price. 

Chris is not only a great attorney, very responsive and knowledgable - he's actively buying & selling his own properties too.

Seller concessions are normal for FHA, they are negotiable.   

Under a normal sale in which the buyer takes occupancy right then.  

He’s active in the mobile home park space. 

Now what I've seen is a lot of activity in this zip code.
