In the meantime learn as much as you can and network on and offline.

Also would be willing to talk offline re your situation and specifics around operator and location of property.

Networking on/offline Craigslist For rent signs Landlord briefings Landlord associations Casual conversations with rehabbers i see on the street Using all avenues collectively will give you a stronger and effective buyers list.

Been doing some offline information gathering the last 2 months and I couldn't have found your post at a more perfect time.

Feel free to email me offline and I can follow up with you and provide.Happy Investing!

We'll likely be offline for the duration of the evening, and possibly part of the early morning.This is being done so we can speed up the site and upgrade our servers.Thanks for the understanding!

Jim,Just wanted to follow up and say thanks for the advice, on and off line.

. ===== I have had a few offline requests for further info, so I decided to see if I can post my last response to you here. ====== I thank you for providing the details on how you choose your agents.

You got to spend money to get the materials, spend the time writing your messages and than you got to put them up in places around the area.On top of that you have to compete with other investors who have the same idea especially if you live in large rural areas or cities.If I'm going to do offline marketing I rather do the flyers on bulletin boards or mailers.

From all my research i decide to try doing virtual wholesaling and offline wholesaling first because it seems to be less risky (is this correct?).
