Looks like you will be spending 30k - 40k out of pocket anyways, which, combined with some private money, might be enough to do a good old fashioned BRRRR in PG county and generate better returns.

Not too mention Ohio was rated one of the most fashionable areas in the US!

On top of what everyone else had said, I have an investor who bought a duplex in a better area over there for FAR less and is converting it to an good old fashioned LTR from the room-to-room boarding house it was before.

Old fashioned foot work.

Columbus is also experiencing some really great developments, such as the new fashion district near Franklinton!

I find it impossible to believe a person with enough capability to acquire 10 properties, facilitate in any fashion for tenancy in those properties, I just find it impossible to believe that person then is going to ignore all basic sense of having a default clause and securitize for performance.  

The majority (of wholesalers) appear to be as so many operate in illegal and/or immoral fashion.

However I think your still going to run I to issues getting the work done in a timely fashion. 

If after that they still don't respond in a timely fashion, call the office and ask for someone who is willing to do so.

I didn't feel like they pushed their marketplace on me; in fact they put me in touch with a tremendous Birmingham agent who has found 3 of my 4 properties the old fashioned way from the MLS.
