What was your most off-the-wall lead for investment property?
I just closed on a SFH in our market (Cuyahoga Falls, OH) from the MOST random lead...my husband's hair stylist. We tell everyone we're looking to buy houses in that market and one day, during a hair cut, she says, "I'm looking to get rid of my house in the Falls." She had been renting it out to a family member and that person was moving out. She didn't have time or money to make updates to sell it so we offered to take it off her hands. Got it for about 30k under market. We'll put maybe 2k of updates into it and rent it. That's my most random lead on a house to date. Anyone else in the BP community have a story like that?
