Hi All,I  heard a lot about wholesaling real estate and it’s sounds like a good way to enter real estate with a low investment.Only thing is I get very skeptical when I see gurus on YouTube pushing and selling courses for certain industries. 

The city offers more affordability compared to the DMV area, with many renovated homes selling below 350k giving you a better chance at finding a property that fits your budget while avoiding sky-high prices.

Is the industry perfect or without fraud.

Make sure your Insurer is industry specific and not just your personal insurance. 

It would be based on the scope of work of the renovation that you're doing comparing for values in its as is condition and values after rehab 

**Maintenance**: Be prepared for a bit more wear and tear compared to market-rate rentals.

That's easy compared to trying to fight and erroneous $13k water bill (a real issue we had) or an insurance policy tripling (that too).

Also, content or manufacturing industry doesn't punishment seller for using multi platforms.

I call them in-between because they are conferences, so not like your local meetups, but they are not truly "industry" conferences like NMHC, where you will meet primarily career, corporate multi-family people.Bigger Pockets Conference and Best Ever Conference are two that likely would cater to people more in your position.
