I plan on driving alot to find distressed or run down multifamily properties that possibly are owned by an out of state investor and reaching out however would like everyone's opinion or personal experience on some other creative ways.

Thank you all for sharing your experiences!

Might want to tuck that (and your TWO years of experience) back in.I guess if you consider doing 80% MORE investor business in 2024 than I did in 2023 "slow", okay then... ha ha ha.But hey - if people like you insist on being a complete jerk here, showing everyone exactly who they are, as Mel Robbins says, I'll "Let them".Who are you, again? 

I say this from experience. 

In my experience cap-x is the rarest of knowledge and actions to most.

Strategic timing matters, especially with multi-state portfolios.Real Example:Investment property sale in 2019Federal noticed unreported gainTwo states involvedTimed response to fall after state deadlinesResult: Only federal adjustment appliedInvestors: What's been your experience handling tax notices across multiple states?

From my experience, they are two different mindsets.

It’s definitely exciting to see suburban Chicago getting recognition as a hot rental market—it’s something I’ve noticed in my own experience as well.

I'm happy to share my experience as both a flipper and a lender.

So if I can do it anyone can I had really zero experience .
