My preference is for family-friendly areas with good schools and a strong sense of community.

Hi, We're looking to invest in properties in Detroit preferably with the BRRRR strategy. 

Since my current strategy is BRRRR, I'm looking for a location where I can implement it successfully within my budget.I’d prefer to target the best neighborhoods or subdivisions I can afford, ideally with favorable eviction laws and other key factors.That said, I started wondering if there might be a better strategy to achieve my goals.

If I have several options, I would prefer a HELOC with no initial draw requirements (i.e. to establish a literal line of credit that I have no specific short term plans to use), i.e. not something like the better.com HELOC. 

I understand the pros and cons of both so no real immediate preference.

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books on this topic, or you can learn about it by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.

As a college student landlord you may have interaction with parents & if they find you unprofessional that may raise red flags, but if you have your s**t together you can ease those concerns.I am a big fan of college rentals.

A few times I've reached out to Cash Buyers and they would tell me that they are a part of an Investment Group and that they are ready to quickly Close Deals would be happy to work with me.Later I would come to find out that they are actually a Group of Wholesalers, like me.I guess I would prefer to Work directly with the Investor, Cash Buyer or Flipper. 

Is there a certain direct mail service they prefer?
