My out-of-state clients love it here because they are still able to find deals here at a very cheap price point, around $120k to $180k.

I always ask my clients to speak to an attorney because so many things are left out of wholesale contracts. 

For the record, I receive ZERO compensation for making these referrals; I'm just a satisfied client!

I started investing in Phoenix in my 20s too, and it's been quite the adventure.About your F1 visa situation, while I'm not an attorney or CPA, I had a client a while back in a similar postion.

What I wrote above does not create an attorney/client relationship between us.

AKA attorneys are hired to draw up/revise/review and sign contracts with their clients, in NYC and Long Island: Attorneys are also the ones that handle ordering title searches and etc. 

Simply scroll to the bottom and you can actually interact with clients like @Bill B. who have direct experience working with that QI.If you have a comfort level working with someone local that is perfectly fine. 

And for those not covered by them, there going to get you exclusive discounts because they are a volume client.
