I signed up in late July and my Facebook ad started running on August 1, 2020. The election has been competing with me as far as putting ads in front of people in the area where I'm focusing (Dayton, OH). So, I cannot say that I've experienced a lot of success at this point, but I think the support provided by the program is incredible. There is a group coaching call 5 days per week (Mon - Fri). I have always been able to ask questions if I had any. You can also post questions in advance of the call. They will attempt to answer them on the call (which is recorded), even if you are not present for the live call. Sometimes, there is not enough information provided by the student to answer the question unless they are on the live call. We also have the option of asking for support via an email. I used this feature recently. One of the fantastic coaches responded within 24 hours by recording a video and sharing the link with me. This coach has done more than 1600 real estate transactions.

The coaches and Nate have a real gift for talking to sellers. Unfortunately, my partners and I don't seem to have the same gift. We're working on it, though, with the help of the training provided by the program.

The coaches are top-notch and never try to make anyone feel dumb for asking any question. They all seem to have a high degree of integrity.

If you're wondering about my level of experience, I used to invest in real estate in NC. The crisis of 2008-2010 took me out of the game. I'm just getting back into it. My partner and I worked with tax lien and tax deed investments for a couple years (2017 - 2019) and will continue to do that on the side.

My partners and I are investing in Dayton, OH. We need some contracts that others have been using successfully in Ohio (we don't live there). We're looking for a separate lease agreement and option agreement. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We need an offer to purchase contract to use with sellers in Dayton, OH. My partner prepared one that we're going to try to get signed today, but it's so long and complicated that I don't think the seller will sign it. I'm looking for something that is short and sweet and won't scare sellers away.

@Rachel H.

Thank you. That's great advice.

I searched the forums and couldn't find a single post about mobile homes. Therefore, I must be doing something wrong (ie. not searching correctly). Since I can't find any existing discussions on mobile homes, I'll post my questions in my own post. I know this isn't technically real estate so the process of buying and selling it will be different.

My partners and I have a lead on a mobile home in West Chester, OH. It is in a mobile home park ($550 lot rent). What do I need to check out to determine it's value? Also, what do I need to be aware of? I know we should check with the park management to make sure the lot rent payments are current. What else do we need to know?

I did a quick search on the Internet and learned that there is something like a Blue Book value that is used for cars. I would imagine I need to know the manufacturer and the year of the home. How can I check that there aren't any liens outstanding against it?

FYI, our plan would be to wholesale the home.

Thanks,

Diane

Thank you very much!

Does anyone know of a good website that provides information about the major industries in any given city/metropolitan area? I've looked at the BLS website and can't find a specific page that makes it easy to figure out if the cities I'm interested in have a diversified economy.
