I'll only add when talking to brokers have a "buy box" defined and research commercial deals to understand it as best you can before you have your first meeting or your broker contact will likely consider you to be a low-chance buyer and not take you seriously.

Question: assuming an ideal brrrr that has all investment extracted at the refinance, why would you choose a low cost market over a high cost market?

I know I need to get a credit card and keep my utilization ratio low, but I wouldn't know much about the process of actually receiving a conventional loan from a bank or any type of loan.

Some people are growth-minded, which means they are willing to help for a low cost, or not much compensation knowing that the more conversations they have will lead to more clients.

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. 

I'll throw in my 2 cents on common differences I've seen in my career:CDFIs - Because of their subsidized financing structure, they have the ability to be a low cost lender (and sometimes provide grants).

Less than 10 minutes and they are done.Self Managed, Low Volume - these folks collect the same rent every month, have minimal expenses beyond their mortgage and find it very easy to collect the few documents they have to report it. 

My ideal location would currently actually be Augusta, GA because I really want to start somewhere with a very low crime rate. 

Bought house in 2020, so instant cash flow given the low rate and price.

It makes less and less sense in a market with low inventory and high interest rates.
