HI Michael! 

I would suggest thinking about your short term plans here vs long term. Are you planning on wholesaling to find deals to hold?

Perhaps you could structure a seller finance deal, then sell some of them off and keep the gems?

Would you want to manage this portfolio if you have the opportunity? That could be a full time gig in itself!

Best of luck, sounds like a great guy to know!

HI David! 

Welcome to BP! You'll find a super helpful community here. Be sure to set up your keyword alerts for any subjects that you would like to learn about.

Also, John Horner and I are putting together a monthly meetup, beginning August 17th. We would love the company!

How are you currently finding your deals?

Take care!

Steve

Hmm, the city said you should meet with an architect or an engineer?

Hello everyone! Thanks for the added interest in the Columbus Ohio Meetup!

Back by popular demand, I have partnered up with Mr. John Horner to bring you, the monthly BP meetup!

We are aiming for the third Monday of every month, starting August 17th.

I am working on nailing down a semi-private location in Worthington. 

Stay tuned!

Steve

PS. Let's share our thoughts at this first meetup on what type of agenda we would like to see going forward.

Looks like it needs a good 10k plus in repairs. Rent in that area would be no more that $600/mo for a 2 bedroom, if the tenant paid at all. 

I'd say ARV would be closer to 25k.

Best bet would be to rehab and seller finance or turn key sale. 

GLWS!

What type of marketing has generally worked for you in the past? I feel a lot of people are doing the exact same tactics, aka yellow letters, so it's a matter of timing.

Are you taking any other angles?

Best of luck!!

@Brian Hayes - Great to hear that your business is blowing up! We should talk about that at our next Columbus meetup.

@Richelle T. - Id love to hear how things are going on your end too!

I say we get everyone together on a Monday night and discuss what we've been up to and what we would like to be able to get from these meetings. By keeping the meetings a monthly affair, we will be able to keep the topics current and unique. 

Im hoping to have a specialized topic for each meeting after our first.

Should I look for something the first Monday in August?
