@Aristone Louxz Congratulations - you made a very smart move, and at such a young age! 

. :-)I'm personally in the market for buy and hold.

“Five years from today, you will be the same person that you are today, except for the books you read and the people you meet.”So remember, surround yourself with good books and people. 

I feel I have received some non verbal criticism because of my age .as much forums and podcast I review over and over I'm still left deal less .

Hi Raj,Are the properties under a LLC or under his personal name.

Here are some recommendations for you:Find and connect with other BP members that are in your area: http://www.biggerpockets.com/meetSet up keyword alerts to be notified of the topics that interest you: http://www.biggerpockets.com/alertsRead Beginner’s Guide: http://www.biggerpockets.com/real-estate-investingCheck out BP Podcasts: http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/category/podcast/If you wish to tag someone in the conversation on the forum, type @ followed by their name and then select the name of that person which should appear below the comments box.

Some relatively simple formulas can make it almost automatic and will suit your needs.If you want to get additional features support, my personal favorite cloud based accounting platform is Xero, but also Quickbooks is extremely popular with lots of customization options.Let me know if you have any other questions.

I would personally like to learn and make my "mistakes" in a cheaper market like KY than Colorado.

USPS/UPS box may not NECESSARILY be a deal-killer, but it warrants further investigation.Visit the person's current job sites, maybe buy them lunch.

This is what I have come up with for myself.I am going to specialize in FSBO properties, buy and hold/flip investors, facebook ads, and FB group posts for buyer leadsI created a pretty lengthy "how to sell your home" guide for FSBO properties, I plan to stay in front of other agents by actually knocking on doors, and delivering the guide to them in person, and then using that to set up a follow up appointment when I can deliver a free CMA.
