This has been my only income for the last few months due to health issues. 

Definitely some poor cities in this list.  

Though I haven't experienced it myself, one of the first expenses to be cut when financial troubles are met are Health & Fitness expenses.  

Remember too how expensive other things are with out w2 income like health insurance.  

Sometimes sellers like 1031 buyers especially the poor planners.

Poor owners in those counties with varying millage! 

And code violations could be anything the city doesn't like: a cracked Window, unpainted porch, cracked concrete or poor grading, unmowed lawn, overgrown bushes, etc, etc.

Note without including appreciation So Cal has been a poor RE investment but due to appreciation it has been the best REI in the nation (along with San Fran).The point being cash flow is only part of what determines a good REI investment.  

I've gone to seminars, listened to webinars gotten forms for assignmentand proof of fund letters, deal analysis and templates for adsbut not sure where to begin..I have a broker friend who now lives inFort Lauderdale whom I've done NYC deals with, I was a real estatebroker for over 20 years...He will work with me on marketing dealsI am cash poor right now, do own a condo that has about 300Kin equity but I have a poor credit score (I had bought 5 propertiesall at once and got behind in those mortgages had to sell, andhave one left that I reside in)  would love to team up with someonewho has more experience in wholesaling.

Poorly too:) given the fact that you found an issue right away.
