I would say dad, you taught me how to throw a ball, drive a car, but, I think I can teach you something about building wealth. 

Thought I'd mix it up a little and just throw an inquiry out there to see where people who are in the Austin area choose to invest that's NOT in Austin.

Now,  my problem is i need to support my family so i cant just quit my job and throw caution to the wind, or sell my house and buy a cheap one to move into while i repair it, as i did my first house.  

Just trying to throw some things out there for you to look into.

(I am not going to sell you anything..) and after you have your campaign up and ruining it is even more crucial to do "Re Marketing" - this is the part that most people are not aware of. if you are not doing this, you are throwing $$$ for nothing... the way to do it is very easy - read about the "Facebook Pixel" and whats called " Look alike audience" hope I could help

Anyway, thanks for the read and anyone willing to throw some knowledge my way about Michigan/Ohio markets i would surely appreciate it.

We are under contract for a third property at 110k which will require 3k in repairs for it to be rent ready and it will rent for $1100 a month.The idea that we are throwing around to not come out of pocket for the third property is to take a commercial loan from a local bank with 80% financing at a rate of 4.9% 5 year term/25 year am. 

Don't ask them to help you, ask how you can help or add value to them, and they will reciprocate.If you just want to throw money at it, look for and talk to at least 5 other mentors, and see what they offer, or what you can barter to get their help at a lower cost to you.

I haven't done any wholesaling, but I would think once they contact you, throwing them a lowball offer is just something you have to get used to.

The key is to work with someone who can come up with a strategic plan to target the correct banks and lenders based on our specific situation and goals instead throwing applications at a wall and hoping for the best.
