Hey all,I'm completely new to this, so please feel free to point out any mistakes I make.I've been super excited for the past few months at the possibility of breaking into real estate, specifically rentals, and more specifically House Hacking + BRRRR.I have identified 'capital' as my critical path to making this happen. 

What makes you want to specifically get into fix and flipping instead of some of the other investing options?

PM me if you have any specific questions I’d be glad to share my experience.

What info about Providence are you looking for specifically?

Does anybody have advice on investing in the area or specifics I need to know before jumping in?

If she went to Assisted Living - I can help you but it's only KS Specific - each state is different but I'm guessing some of the guidelines carry across states in regards to how she will pay for the ALF and eligibility for Medicaid and Home and Community Based Services (which is a medicaid program that would help pay for ALF)Anyways in KS - in for someone to qualify for HCBS/Medicaid to help pay for their care either in the  home or assisted living - you need to have less than $2k in assets - and consistently less than $2k in the bank - there is also something called a 5 year lookback period - I do not 100% understand how the lookback period works but will soon enough.So - as far as the assets are concerned - if your friends mother has the house and any savings there is no way the govt will be paying for most of her stay in ALF - and I also think it would be difficult to house her in an ALF facility for $3k per month - can be done but tough - Due to no estate planning the family needs to decide on what they are going to do - they will either need to sell the house now and just pay her money down at the private pay rate in a facility until she "runs out of money" then apply for Medicaid and go from there or see if the strategy of renting the house with her present income will be enough to cover the facility she's staying at.Individually the systems are simple however there are so many moving parts to Medicaid HCBS I've discovered in my time as owner of a facility I can 100% understand the families frustrations. 

- This is like Zillow and Redfin where you can find properties but supposedly FlipComp has properties that aren't listed on the MLS.Realtytrac.com has more information on foreclosures; types and timelines, specific to states and all.Hope this helps!

The REIA has some good meetups and do a meeting specifically on wholesaling regularly. 

What are the specific steps to wholesale that after the owner has signed that agreement? 

@Nick Ragucci can you give more specifics on a "business between multiple investors"
