In the past 8 years, I have bought 3 investment properties in 2 different states using 3 different loan types and they have been a great success.

The outcome was highly successful, with the property's market value increasing from $189,000 to $315,000 after renovations.

Thanks for replying and congrats on your success.

Once you've done a little educating through a $10 book and some free podcasts (the good ones), the main driver of your success is consistent daily action.

But, again, if you friends  in Indy know a thing or two about investing and can partner with you, where you both have a financial stake and they get "more" of the pie relative to their equity contribution in order to oversee the success, that would be the ideal scenario in my book.As for broadly in markets, both are considered pretty good.  

All the most successful wholesalers I've seen here in KC (and the ones I've bought from) all at least have a local affiliate.2) List Source is what I've always used for getting such lists.

I hope to hear about your success stories and any challenges you've encountered along the way.Thank you!
