Since I am not experienced in real estate, I have dozens of questions about filling out the application and no agent or customer service representatives I can turn to. 

Thanks especially to @Jay Hinrichs who introduced me to MULTIPLE service providers in the space who can assist me.

Venmo seems to be popular, but their terms of service state that it’s not for business use - so that could become a problem at some point, holding up money.

also, would appreciate insight on reasonable pricing for this type of service - we are new to investing. 

I was excited about this service and am not completely disillusioned.

Also, reach out to local wholesalers, brokers, and real estate agents to get the word out of your services.

Several service providers post to these forums regularly including a few that have responded here.

I am looking forward to network and connect with investors in the Virginia area.JosephWelcome to BP and thank you for your service. 

I came to hate IKEA because of horrible, terrible customer service.

I had more than on contractor borrower of mine that finally figured that out got enough equity from relatives and now they are doing quite well and no way we can compete with them.but you start moving up north of 750k to purchase and unless your in the Bay area or prime LA  that does knock out a lot of competitionand you also have to remember this poster is paying CASH  HUGE difference as she has no cost of capital most of us need to borrow and if your borrowing HM which 95% have to as banks really don't service this niche ... her carrying cost ona say 700k project would eat up 20 to 30k EASY..
