@Conn G. and @Laura Powers I've worked with a handful of title companies here in Cincy that are good for quirky off-market transactions (double closings, private lending, wraparound subject-to mortgages, etc.). Happy to make some recommendations, PM me!

@Doug Sah given that your current business are generating good cashflow, are you looking to dive head-fist into a new investing arena and start from scratch with education and networking? Or are you just looking to diversify a portfolio that's already performing for you? If it's the latter, why not looking into more hassle-free or even passive REI options? The tax advantages and long-term cashflow are still there, and there's much less of a learning curve.

@Kyle Neff you should come to the next @Joe Fairless meetup later this month! It's my favorite REI meetup in the Cincy area because there are a lot of investors operating a a high level, doing lots of deals and building big portfolios, that are regulars there. I'll be there, if you can make it out please introduce yourself! @Grant Rothenburger has more details or follow the link below.

Have you connected with @Garth Kukla yet? He's a really good wholesaler, his team does a LOT of deals and he leaves meat on the bone for his buyers to make sure they have the opportunity to profit off of his deals.

I only RUBS gas right now, abs only at one property. That being said I'm buying a property next week that's had very sporadic water use the past several months so I may be trying to figure this out soon.

Best looking option right now is the water meters you can attach to the supply lines that'll tell you how much water is passing through them. I want to figure out how to use something like that in order to bill tenants for actual usage and not just a flat proportion of the monthly bill. 

@Ken P. Thank you so much for posting this! I love telling other parents with high school and college kids about what y'all did, and I'll definitely do this myself when the time comes. And thank you for trusting your realtor when he told you to write that offer before you saw the house in person! I think it's going to work out!

@Nicholas Morgan I'll be interested to hear about the accuracy of the phone numbers you got from ListSource. Some wholesaler friends have complained to me about getting too many disconnected lines.

Good luck with your duplex!

@Tae C. it sounds like it would've been a decent deal if it were structured with better partners. Sorry to hear about your losses, and I hope you get it sold soon! If I can offer any advice on getting is sold, PM me and let me know!

@Jay Hinrichs Yes C class areas. And again, that's not what most deals here are bought for, but sifting through all the property listings and getting creative with negotiating, it's possible to do on-market in Cincy.

@Brian Reynolds hopefully my GC referral can get you back on track!
