Welcome @Jephney Herring! In addition to BP, I also suggest checking out some local networking events. Some of my favorites are: www.dreia.org / www.breia.com / www.reandb.com . Best of luck in your journey!

Welcome @Jonathan P.! When looking at potential return, defining "good enough" is up to you - it's your money/investment! For example, I would not personally hold a property delivering just a 7% return, because I can get a lot more by lending out my money. But if your money is just sitting in a savings account earning a fraction of a %, then a 7% return would be better. SFH are even further complicated by the fact that you also have to take appreciation into account.
Also, if these deals you are seeing aren't good enough, I don't think you should count on a gem to just come to you...If a gem is what you are looking for, I think you're going to have to go out there and look for it.

Welcome @Troy Dickson! I think you've got the right idea! Your journey into real estate won't be easy, you'll probably have to work real hard initially to be successful, but it is a solid path to financial freedom...Working for someone else is not! I'll second James' suggestion - get out there and network! Absolutely one of the most important aspects of this business, especially as you are starting out and learning! If there's anything I can do to help you on your journey, don't hesitate to reach out! Best of luck!
