Hello everyone!

Hope you all have had happy investing endeavors in and around Columbus since our last Biggerpockets meetup!

I am wanting to fire up a summer series, although it feel like fall out there, and get some people together to network. Wholesalers, rehabbers, realtors, CONTRACTORS and more.

I know we can help each other out and we all need it!

Any interest?? I will be reaching out through Meetup and various FB groups! Let me know and Ill set up a location and time.

Thanks,

Steve

Hello there fellow investors!

I know this conversation has occurred in the past, but I would like to get feedback/recommendations on call centers that people are currently using with success! 

Thank you all, in advance, for your time.

-Steve

(ps. I know that I should answer the phone myself, but would like to know my best options when I am spending time with my family)

Like Jordan said, having your license is a great way to learn your market.

Depending on what type of investing you would like to do, you could also save $$ by listing your properties and time by being able to pull comps instantly.

In addition, I find it helpful to know the local laws that the board enforces.

@Dave Myers I would look in your own backyard, Delaware Ohio. With the college and the availability of run-down SFH's, I feel the market is great for a flip to landlord situation.

Let me know if I can help. 

PS. I live there too.

Had someone contact me about a few liens she owns. Would like info on the foreclosure process, timing and general info.

Pretty sure you could, but could you mark up the liens and sell them off?

Thanks!
