Trying to find a deal

Hey everyone, I’m looking to start on finding my first deal within the Midwestern and southeastern states. Such as Indiana, North Carolina, Ohio, etc. It would be my first deal but have been learning and reading about business and real Estate investing since I was 18 and I just turned 20 and now have enough funds to start investing.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone can refer me to a real estate agent or wholesaler In those areas in order to find that first deal. Hopefully one day I’d be able to return the favor and even be able to help another beginner like me.

I'm primarily looking for multi family properties for buy and hold.

We own property in Memphis and it’s a great market with a ton of potential. Once we got rid of our previous property manager, Crestcore, our experience has been so much better. In our opinion Crestcore is one of the most dishonest groups operating in Memphis. Please keep in mind this is simply our opinion and it would be up to you to form your own based off of reviews and recommendations from others but unfortunately they do not get our recommendation whatsoever. You’ll see their name pop up a lot on the forums for the Memphis market but again, from our own experience we find them to be very dishonest, unprofessional, and very unethical.

We haven’t heard much about Mid South Home Buyers but they don’t seem to have amazing reviews online either and we did find a post about them where Douglas Skipworth, a Crestcore executive said: “I know the folks at Mid South Home Buyers very well. In fact, I met with them at their warehouse two days ago”

With us having such a negative experience with Crestcore, and the level of dishonesty they’ve showed towards us and several others we’ve talked to, we wouldn’t feel comfortable working with Mid South Home Buyers either because we honestly can’t trust Crestcore. Please keep in mind once again, this is purely opinion based and it would be up to you to continue doing your own research on the two groups so that you could form your own opinion of each organization.
