Samantha Welcome to Bigger Pockets!!

Happy to go over the pockets/areas of Columbus Ohio where you can typically find better cash flow in and would love to share some resources that can help!

Personally, I wouldn't spend money on an attorney because 1) I think the covenants/restrictions can sensibly be used against STRs and 2) because the HOA potentially has deep pockets if the officers decide to fight because they can pass the cost of the fight to the home owners.I would reach out to the officers to get their sentiments and to plead my case, and I would start building my case with the other homeowners. 

the book on Flipping Houses by J Scott and published by Bigger Pockets is an EXCELLENT resource! 

Hi Mary,It is true the lender will not usually give you the rehab funds in advance, but this does not mean that you must complete all of the rehab out of pocket.

Welcome to Bigger Pockets. 

I am very new to the space and brand new to the bigger pockets platform.

And you have to remember too, NYC is not the norm in the country when you are reading through Bigger Pockets. 

I am curious how many members are signing up for passive pockets.

My previous comment was "flagged" by bigger pockets as they think I was trying to sell you something for free, anyway.
