Is Anyone Investing Around Low Income Areas in Philadelphia?

I've been wanting to get my feet wet with real estate and since I really can't legally sign a contract yet, unless I get my parents to co-sign a contract (but I don't want to ask them to co-sign until I prove to them that I know the ins and outs of real estate), I decided to get started with bird dogging instead of some other methods such as wholesaling. I've been walking around my neighborhood and some other places and I've been scouting the area for some vacant looking/owner neglected houses, hoping to find some solid deals for anyone who wanted to invest in Philadelphia

If anyone is interested, they can send me a private message and I can send them the houses that I've found. I don't think it would hurt to give it a shot, and if anyone wants to give me advice on how I can improve with bird dogging after looking at my properties.

@Ryan Dao have you considered attending some local meet ups and networking events? This is a great way to get your face known and learning investing at the same time. Online networking is great also but its much better when you can put a face to your colleagues in person. 

It's great that you have so much ambition at your age. Grow as you learn and learn as you grow! 

Congratulations on turning your dreams into reality!!!!

Best Wishes.
