To be honest I actually sort of like the reputation Loopnet has of being "where deals go to die". 

That is not a bad thing, but you will need to work harder to find something with a little meat on the bone.Another option is to work through a reputable wholesaler and find something "lightly distressed"....more of a cosmetic rehab. 

Hi @Carol Schmidt,The AC brand with the best reputation now is Rheem.

You will develop the reputation of someone who doesn't close on deals which is the worst thing to be in the acquisition world.  

Another part also is reputation.

Without it you won’t get far.Not sure how real estate got the reputation for investing with no money but all investments require money, otherwise it’s just a job

I have my eyes on a triplex in Florida and looking to see if there are any reputable hard money companies willing to do around 10% down.

Does anyone have any recommendations for reputable wholesalers in Louisville, Ky?

Reputation is important if you're wholesaling, know the numbers backwards and forwards, up and down and they must be reliable if you want to continue to wholesale.A partner may not be a bad way to go if you can find one or two with cash and know how. 

Also be careful of lowballing too much. you could not only get a blatant no with no wiggle room, but if the seller/selling agent know a lot of people, this could hurt your reputation in the area.
