Various marketing studies have been done over the years which suggest that your recipient has an average of somewhere around a 7-second attention span before he/she "pitches" your card.

Study the market.

This of course can prove to be a costly process!

A recent study showed it was initially cheaper to rent than to buy in 97 of the largest 100 markets.  

Hi Jessenia,I've been in the game for quite some time and have many battle scars to prove it lolMy best advice would be to always look at a worst case scenario and start from that.By starting with a worst case scenario you will be able to quicker eliminate markets that aren't a good fit.I don't know much about NY but personally, I wouldn't invest in any market that takes 6 months or even worse longer to evict.Worst case scenario for example = Tenant doesn't pay rent and trashes the property.I would want to be able to evict, fix and re-tenant as quickly as possible.Time is money and I want to keep moving forward and not deal with financial and emotional drag.There are many markets nation wide that are landlord friendly.My business is based on Ohio and there is no mercy for non payment of rent.Eviction usually takes 6 weeks max and although I never want to evict, being able to do so quickly minimizes risk of that investment.Thanks 

I am new to the investment game although  i have listened, studied and taking courses for years.

We deal with some of the best "we buy" folks on the east coast.When the property condition is unexpected, they terminate during the study period... as they have reserved the right to do. 

Now, it would keep you in compliance possibly and make the proof of payments made easier to prove etc, but who services your loan does not change who is obligated on the debt.

You could even look into Opportunity Zones.Other options are doing a Cost Segregation study depending on the property.To drag out the gains, you can do a Deferred Sales Trust, or Installment Sale.

Wholesaling does NOT lead to investing, studying real estate finance, principles and law and working for an investment real estate company leads to successful real estate investment.
