I've met the owner, and my friend has 2 padsplit properties.

I do enjoy the interface and their ability to show owner data without having to skiptrace.

Maybe one of my chicago friends could tell you their experience here @Mark Ainley or @Zach Shepard?

Attend meetups (that’s where I made friends with other wholesalers and learned from them).Good luck, and take it one step at a time! 

I have a similar situation where a Canadian investor friend and myself (a US citizen) are planning to partner up in Florida to flip properties.

I am partnering on an exciting opportunity with a few friends / investors. 

Some use family and friends or partner and give up a percentage of the deal.

I have a good friend who owns a few small hotels that uses Hostaway and was able to do a Zoom call with him so he could show me the process. 

I'm not planning to expand to Ohio at this time but my friends at Premier Host Management https://premierhostmgmt.com/ may be able to help you

@Shuvrajit Mukherjee - You have to be able to scrape that data from some where pretty easy...a lot of that property specific info is public record.There is a website called chicago cityscape...I am decent friends with the founder....it is sourcing a ton of data that might help.
