If so, you will need to rollover those funds into respective money sources of pre-tax and Roth. 2) Analyzing whether to use IRA or Solo 401(k), is fairly straight forward, when the intent is for you to have your own business and want to use the funds for real estate investing.

I think whenever you are getting advice from someone it's important to always consider the source to identify the incentives that person has to give a certain answer and how it colors their thoughts.

Do you rely on specific data sources, gut instincts, or perhaps a blend of both?

It’s amazing how life can come full circle, especially with your roots in Birmingham, Alabama, where you’re now building out your next venture.Flipping homes is a great way to start, and transitioning into the BRRR strategy for rentals sounds like a solid plan, especially with the growth in select Southern markets.

All the most successful wholesalers I've seen here in KC (and the ones I've bought from) all at least have a local affiliate.2) List Source is what I've always used for getting such lists.

My 9 year old daughter still has roots there.

Another option you can do is buy using conventional first and as long as you can live in it you can rehab slowly if you have the time and use money for rehab from another source if possible.

I have learned a lot about the process from listening to BP podcast and other sources, but I still don't know about Oregon's specific laws surrounding wholesaling. 

I would be leery investing in a cash negative property with the only profit source being appreciation.Good luck
