I was at Barnes & Noble looking for real estate books and I saw someone looking at the same books as me so I sparked up a conversation and by the time we got done talking he gave me his card and we have been communicating through email and text.

That's a great stat, you should put that on your business cards.  

I thought about a hard money lender but I only have 3000.00 in savings and an 7000.00 in open credit through credit cards.

You get the right kind of Heloc its like a huge credit card.

Things we can bring to the table:1- Realtor - access to the MLS for finding and negotiating the best deals 2- Contractor - licensed and insured and in business for 10 years to bring renovation costs down to make more money 3- Money - We have about 20k in Home Depot and Lowe's cards to repair the house4- Work - Willing to do the leg work to find great deals and do complete renovations Problems:1- Credit - My credit is in ok shape, 650 to 700 due to medical bills. 2- Money - I have enough money to do renovationsGoal - Need a smart investor to purchase property with, be a mentor to show us the way.

I'm told it will upload to Quick Books.  

@Will Koederitz- I think doing another renovation is in the cards.

NTN is the only option I can find, but I would definitely like the ability for the tenant to fill out the application online and provide their credit card number so I don't even have to deal with it.  

I decided to hold a broker/agent open this Friday (with a gift card raffle for those who fill out my agent pricing feedback questionnaire)...I figure that's a good start to getting some opinions & hopefully buyers.

Income from your rental should cover that property + some extra, downsize your personal life if you must (pay off car, credit cards, etc).
