@Bonnie Low definitely, can you DM me? I'm already working with an agent but I am still looking for lenders and attorneys

Hello everyone, hope all is good. I'll be purchasing a duplex in Columbus, Ohio soon, and I'm looking for a real estate attorney to work with along with lenders and a property manager. I'm an out of state investor but I'll be moving here as well so if you're out there, feel free to reach out! We can hop on a call or preferably meet in person (I'll be in Columbus for the next few days).

Hey everyone,I was looking for information on buying a commercial property, I don’t know much about them and was hopefully looking to connect with other investors or anyone that would be willing to assist.

Quote from @Mark Cruse:

Really? I  would like an apartment building in Georgetown DC, ready to go for 230k myself. I can want it for the rest of my life and thatś how long I´ll be waiting. Personally, I feel you should start off with understanding what actual reality is. I understand everything you are looking for, but if it were actually a normality, everyone on earth would be a wealthy and successful investor by now. I dont know the dynamics of every community of the United States, but under 250k multi in a class A/B community that needs no work is something I have never seen (in recent times). If its there, I can sincerely tell you itś not common. You should first identify an area where possibly you can come anywhere near the ball park of what you are requesting. After that, you need to understand the essence of risk vs reward. The higher the risk the higher the reward. A and B class communities which are very desirable are considered low risk. If they were widely available anywhere near what price point you want; millions of experienced investors who scan for this 24 hours a day would be there long before you. You most likely will have to evaluate the C class and maybe lower. There can be hundreds of things to consider, but the over all best approach in my opinion is to find a great (credible) turn key provider and see whatś the best they can offer (which still wont be near what you want).  Also you can acquire a Class C thatś  distressed and add value. Its so much to talk about and thereś so many moving parts but this is some food for thougtht. 

Good luck. I wish you the best!  


 This is great advice, thank you

Quote from @Jonathan Greene:

You did the right thing by fixing your finances first so that is awesome. A word of caution on your request though, when you tell people in an open forum that you want to spend X anywhere that works with what you want, you are opening yourself to unwanted spam and potentially a pile of garbage coming your way. No one is willing to move anywhere. Start to get clear on where you think a great place for you would be, considering job prospects, life, hobbies, weather. If you don't like the cold, you aren't going to move to North Dakota for a sweet deal.


 I would only be there temporarily, and I travel for work anyways so I truly don’t mind at all

Hey Isaiah, that's great to hear! Take a closer look at Cleveland and Columbus for excellent investment opportunities. In these cities, your financial resources will go a long way enabling you to assemble a diverse multifamily portfolio and initiate a steady stream of income. I'd be happy to connect if you wish to know more.


 Absolutely!

Good morning everyone, I finally completed step 0; build up my credit and save for a down payment. My current market is terrible, so I’m ready to move somewhere with more potential. I’m looking to speak to agents that have listings anywhere that can meet these following requirements: A class/ B+ neighborhood, no rehabbing necessary or only cosmetic, price no more than $250,000, and landlord friendly states only. I’ve realized that’s all that matters as every state has their own diamonds in the rough so I’m ready and willing to move anywhere. For clarification I do mean MF homes not renting out rooms. Thank you in advance.


 Hey Isaiah,

As someone who also is in a market that is HCOL and not very suitable for a househack, I have also thought of this. The thing that restricts me is my job is in NY. Do you have a remote job or a plan to change jobs?


 I travel the country for work so it’s not too much of an issue
