He has 5 markets (MSAs) he invests in and it was interesting listening to him talk about each market and what's cooling down and what's warming up, what's better now in a more defensive position versus aggressive positions. 

Once you open it let us know if it had anything cool

Cool idea.

The house is filled with antiques and all sorts of cool items.

@Ricardo Cristobal I always caution people about out of state investments especially when youre just getting started @Brandon Turner always says try and look for a deal an 1-2 hours outside of the area that you live in when looking to invest in an expensive area, that device is sound and has worked for me and clients of mine who live in NYC.

Buildium has a lot of other cool features we take advantage of, but that could be a whole separate post to be honest.

But my question would be, are there better banks/lending devices to work with that would make it easier? 

What is really cool is a wholesaler/prospective wholesaler wanting to be better and do things right.  

Basically what it sounds like you want to do is be a property manager on the property which is cool but a property manager isn’t on the hook for a grand a month if the unit is empty.
