Agreed, I had this exact conversation with another investor today when they brought up the lower purchase prices in small-town Minnesota.

That is good advice and will likely help me in the conversations I am having with the banks.I hear what your saying about the driveway being step one....that is a lesson learned and will be on my check list in the future.

Focus on having actual conversations.

Interesting conversation nonetheless...

Set up an apt with them, send some of the questions you have in advance and have a conversation.

I own my own home free and clear in Converse, Texas.

After the conversations I has with these agents ( I am not painting all agents )  they sounded like used car salesmen talking down to someone .
