I’m struggling to understand why all of this is necessary just to use their property management software.

Whether you’re a mortgage broker, real estate broker, or running a private lending shop, what software and processes have been game-changers for you?

As a broker, I "buy" a mortgage at a discount from a direct wholesale lender, then mark it up and "sell" it to my client to make a profit.

Due to current interest rates, many CAP rates are much lower than they should be and usually there is only so much price discount a non-delinquent seller will be able or willing to offer.

If you decide to go the multifamily route, Real Estate lab .com is a multifamily software for deal analysis plus they have many other useful features. 

Of course you can get discounts for having certain items FULLY updated, like plumbing.  

I personally found this software a lifesaver.

How do I go about finding those who'd rather just collect the insurance money then sell it off at a discount?  

I would like to connect with any member who invests in the Daytona or Columbus area of Ohio.Question: Is there any recommendations on how to find discounted properties in the Ohio market or is a turnkey property the way to go?

Just underwrite a refinance assuming about 30-36% of the money you will receive goes to refinance closing costs at worst, and find discounts when you can.
