 Thank you!

 Thank you, Samuel! Do you have any advice on wording to use when approaching the homeowner of a distressed property?

 Thank you! Blessings on your journey! What is the first type of property you would like to acquire? Or what have you already acquired?

 Thank you! I am excited to make my first deal!

 Thank you for the encouragement, Min! Yes, please! I would love to see your neighborhood grade map. Thank you very much! We are about 30 miles east of Cleveland in Geauga County. I need to keep everything very local for now, which is challenging, but I'm willing to face a challenge. The biggest competition in our area is the Amish community. They have so many children, they are constantly buying any vacant land and houses as quickly as they can. They also tend to have cash to do that. But I am not giving up! I am printing letters today to start mailing to homeowners of distressed properties. I have a list of over 125 now, after about a week of working on it.

Finally signed up for Pro. I am looking for a great House Hack here in my area. I have to look off-market because inventory is extremely low here. As a result, I've been driving for dollars and mining the county auditor's website for properties with delinquent taxes. I am now planning to do wholesaling with any leads that I get that I cannot buy myself. 

Goal: Build a passive income from rentals that will allow my husband, my daughter, and myself to live on mission for Jesus Christ. We have so many dreams of being able to go on missions trips and help the poor and needy around the world! I can't wait to start making that happen with God's help through real estate. 
 

 Thank you, Jason!  I have a lot to learn about everything you said!

We are just starting our real estate journey. We live in rural NE Ohio. I'm talking Amish farm country. I have been driving for dollars and mining the county auditor's site for homeowners who are delinquent on their taxes. I have a list of over 100 distressed properties now, but I don't want to start contacting homeowners until I have some cash buyers in the wings. We are hoping to find a great house hack for ourselves in the process, but for anything that I cannot handle myself, I want to wholesale to someone else. I can't seem to find anyone locally who will answer Facebook messages or phone calls. I have scanned through about 1/4 of the sales in our county for the last 3 years, arranged by seller name, looking for a person or company who has made multiple sales, but so far, the couple flippers I have found doing that haven't responded to me. The nearest RIEA is over an hour away with only 3 members who live in our county. Can anyone give me some ideas on how to find cash buyers in my market?  Thank you!
