Mostly data entry type work @Daniel Frye is what I use VA's for in my business.

Great to hear! It took my partner & I nearly a year to get through the legal aspect of things @Leo Hefner. I wish you the best of luck getting your first deal together.

Agreed with @John Thedford. Advertising via the marketplace will give you better exposure. I do believe you need a pro account in order to post there @Bryson Pennock.

As others have stated this is not a good start for the prospective tenants @Arnie Guida. From personal experience this will only linger into the following months with late rent.

Welcome to the site @Account Closed stated in addition to that there's crowdfunding(where you can own a slice of a deal).
Have you looked into markets that offer what you're looking to achieve, Darryl?

4) I take my time when driving for dollars. If someone's behind me I let them pass.. If you miss any houses then turn around & do the ones you missed.

Hey BP,
1) When is safest time to drive for dollars. I do it alone and driving in war zone areas sometimes.
2) Best way to log your driving for dollars houses?
3) How many houses is a good amount to get in one day? (vacant ones)
Thanks in advance!
1) During the day. What is your reason behind targeting war zones?
2) I use a convert talk to text app. Then after I have the houses complied I send to my email.
3) This varies. I work towards getting 30-40 in any given area. Sometimes more. I do distressed houses along with the vacant ones.

My first deal was single-family in which I used my mentors capital to fund the deal @Jerad Gardner. It's also best to pick a single niche to start versus trying to venture into multiple. That is my personal opinion.
