BiggerPockets is an excellent platform for networking and establishing connections.

I would say go through your selections again and be very thorough to make sure something weird was not clicked - but as you mention, you can contact zillow.

Neighborhood selection, property management, tenant risk, and rehab surprises can make or break an investor.

I’d recommend using Excel or a tool like Trello or Notion to track what you need, compare deals, and stay on budget.

By having a second pair of eyes throughout the buying and selection process, you'll end up more realistic expectations.

Excellent point, thank you for bringing this up.

I use Rent Redi and it is good.I also use Excel, Zelle and Zillow which are all free or I already have them.

Since they're responsible for the property, they’re selective about who they take on, but I can refer you to them.

The time has come for me to start investing in real estate and before doing so i'm looking to build a strong and dedicated team of partners: agents, lenders, contractors and property managers mainly in the Cleveland area (but also open to markets within a 2-3 hr drive away) that already possess an excellent track record in their line of work and that value long term collaboration.

Please advise on how to accept a colleague request...the 'accept' option isn't showing and 'notifications' does not activate when selected.
