Local banks and smaller credit unions are most aggressive in this space.

Zero in 2024 in Huntsville - which is precisely why we bought zero LTRs in 2024 locally (bought one out of state, and bought a local flip property and one small local commercial property - slowest year since I started REI in 2017). 

@Michael VelezThe best thing you can do is join a local real estate investing club.

What was the quality like compared to local options?

Starting with remote investing, like in Charlotte, can be an option, but it might be worth exploring local opportunities in Orange County too.

Hey @Aaron Price, I think the best way you can get started in real estate is to reach out to local investor-friendly agents in your market.

You could start with your agent or a local agent who supports investors and could have contacts to refer to you.Lastly, you could consider negotiating with a local PM to take on a hybrid approach to management.  

I would get in touch with a local builder, and see about getting a mentorship on down days and days you have off..

Going to start by checking into local REÍ meetups and talking to some friends and family that are doing what I’d like to.

My guess is that it could be structed as one person handles everything locally 'boots-on-the-ground', and the other acts as the investor.Has anyone see or done deals like these?
