I have been looking in to REI (buy/hold & flips) for a while now and have made the decision to throw my hat in the ring.

Welcome.You'll want to check out the local networking opportunities:The RING in Baton Rouge & BP Acadiana in LafayetteCall if I can be of assistance.Make it happen!

Since it hasn't yet been mentioned, I'll throw my hat in the ring for the Birmingham market.

I adjust prices daily though and answer all inquiries within 5 minutes- It's a 24/7 job- yes I have a special ring tone for my emails that will wake me up out of a deep sleep to answer all questions. 

I knocked on the door and ringed the door bell, but no one answered.

I'm going to take on this fourplex after I conduct the inspection, the only thing that worries me is that the property was built in 1964 but it has been rehabbed recently.Please understand that my statement was not a ringing endorsement of each and every Low CAP rate 4-plex, and as a matter of fact, strictly speaking, CAP rate should not apply to 4-plexes which are considered residential property and therefore trade based on comparable sales.

Fred Joaquin Maybe after the 4th Fred, my number is on the profile, just give me a ring, extension 1.

Maybe they have plenty of business, but usually salespeople consider the phone ringing to have the smell of $$. 

Welcome to BP @Gabriel Ugarte Your name rings a bell so maybe you have done a better job introducing yourself than you think!

Otherwise, I would venture out to more first ring suburbs looking for deals if you are more focused on good cash on cash returns vs driving most the returns through real estate appreciation and debt reduction.
