Hello all, My RE investing partner and I have started looking into Dayton, OH as our start to long distance investing (we both live in very expensive real estate markets). I have a rental property currently but it was purchased as a residence first then converted to rental, so I don't really count it towards my experience in shopping for perspective properties. 

We are currently running #'s off of the MLS just to see if there is anything that jumps out, but are planning to expand our lead sources to find better deals than what is generally found on the MLS. We want to build our core team to support the long distance investing and hope that the BP community can give some referrals. Looking to find VIPs in each of the categories listed below, and looking to start moving on opportunities right away.

• ~Property Manager
• ~RE Agent
• ~Lender/Broker
• ~Contractor

Also, open to feedback from those who know the Dayton/Columbus area.
