It puts you in a position to learn the market, build connections, and spot deals before most people even know they exist.

You have received some great recommendations and if you are yet to decide on an Investor friendly to work with, you can send me a DM and see if we are a good fit.I do provide free mentorship and a lot of free resources and connections to anyone I work with especially beginners like you. 

If you’re saying the exact same thing to every seller, you’re probably missing opportunities to connect and provide real value.

I'm actually jumping on here to let you know that am also an investor around the Champaign area, I'd love to connect!

Would love to learn more about this flipping plan you have and get you connected with anyone you may not already have on your team.

I'd be happy to connect for more ideas! 

Networking is the key to growth...I am always down for coffee if you want to connect in person. 

I lived in Cleveland for multiple months and have some great connections to help you get started investing in Cleveland.

Networking at local meetups and connecting with agents who work with investors sounds like a great strategy.
