Thank you Michael, Brian, Kathy and James for the warm welcome :)After doing quite a bit of research, taking courses on all the different types of strategies, legal advice on the vast pitfalls of real estate investing, negotiating, etc.

So many people jump in without doing any research and learn their lessons the expensive way.

Woke up ready to take on the day :) I've been researching homes all morning.

Your approach is too difficult and it is like trying to play cards in the dark, There are a lot more ways to invest using lease options then spending so much time researching properties that may not work.I would recommend sending emails to sellers and advertising as the are many free ways to advertise for sellers, don't spend a lot of time thinking about the property as there will be plenty of time to do the math after you have a potential seller who is interested in a lease option.

(They could research the purchase cost on the assessor's site, granted.)Thanks again.

That was my first post on here and it was extremely helpful.I actually just made contact with a guy who researches the houses that are coming to auction and buys them for investors at the auctions and charges a fee.

Time will usually tell whether this is a temporary spike causing the disruption.My advice to you is to research the market by talking to other local investors doing similar activity.

I was doing some research online and Expert PDF is a good app to fill out PDF forms on iPad.
