 This seems like great advice. I am actually buying in the northeast Ohio market. If you have a referral for a good attorney and/or title company I'd love to get in touch with them.

Hello everyone, I'm relatively new to the Real Estate scene, I've done some research and have concluded I am interested in wholesale to begin my journey. I am trying to do this the right way, so with this post I inquire for advice on getting started. Anything helps, as I would like to expand my knowledge on Real Estate all together. I hope everyone is having a good day.

Best regards, Briant R.

I have bought all of my deals with an agent through the MLS. You see all the time that the best deals come off market, and wholesalers find the best deals. You also see a plethora of cautionary tales "Do your DD on a wholesaler" What does that mean to you, what are good questions to ask a wholesaler?

I was always under the impression that a VA loan could not be assumed for investment purposes and that it must be for a primary residence, which typically means occupancy of the residence for a year.

However, while speaking with a company who specializes in Va assumptions, i was told that with VA is possible to assume For investment purposes and there's no residency requirement. Is this true?

We went from zero to over fifty rental properties in about 10 years. Overall real estate investing has been a very good business for us in the form of cash flow and equity. But it is time to scale back to give us more time to focus on our family and some other projects.

So now we are in the process of selling 9 properties in Colorado and 7 properties in Ohio. We have listed them with real estate agents we like and have used other transactions. But I wonder if I should also list them on loopnet or crexi. Is that worth it? Can I do that as an owner? Or are there other strategies to get the properties in front of investors?

We are a few friends from California looking to invest in multi family real estate in Ohio. Initially, we were thinking to make an LLC. For LLC, we need to register in Ohio and California. If we don't go the LLC route for now and just make a general partnership, will we have to register the partnership also in both Ohio and California?
Also, for a general partnership, how do we report the taxes. Is it by filing 1065 and generating K1's or is there more to it?

Hello everyone

So we are under contract for a quad in Columbus area and currently shopping around for Home insurance. I have a nice recommendation list of providers from my RE agent, but a lot of those do not provide coverage for a Quad property as supposedly they are considered a commercial property.

So I wanted to ask here

1. If anyone has personal experience on a home insurance provider they are happy with, I would love to know more about that.

2. Any special caveats to include/exclude in the insurance coverage as its a rental property?

3. Bonus point, if you could share (in a DM) approx how much you pay annually for your quad home insurance, so I have some idea about the market rate there

Hello Bigger Pockets!

My name is Marie and I'm currently making my way out of nursing. My son just joined the Navy and now that I’m an empty nester I want to make a shift and bet on myself! I’m eager to connect with individuals who are experienced in real estate investing so I can grow and develop on this new path. I’ve been educating myself and would like more knowledge and a deeper understanding of the real estate world. The strategies I’m currently focused on are wholesaling, flipping and rentals. However, I’m open to all strategies. I live in North Carolina by way of New Jersey. I'm interested in opportunities in and out of state. 

I’m looking forward to learning and building relationships within this space and beyond.

I’m so excited to start this new journey!

Thank you for reading!

Hi BP,

I have quite a bit of equity sitting in a rental property I own. Gathering different opinions here. What would YOU personally do with about $130k cash to invest in real estate. Just want to hear everybody's thoughts.

Hello and thank you in advance for any advice! I'm really new to investing out of state. I'm looking into purchasing a rental property in the Belmont area of Dayton, OH and wanted to get any insight for this market as it seems concerning that the average rent is higher compared to the actual costs of houses in the area. Wondering if the vacancy rate is higher in the area as it seems more advantageous to just buy a house and pay mortgages rather than renting. Thank you again for all your time!
