1) Specifically looking at the midwest, I personally am doing a lot of business in Ohio. 

In my offer I've budgeted $2000 for a repair.

For Example, my Note Investing notebook has Sub Categories for Consolidated Note Resources, Goals, Note Buying Criteria, Foreclosure Timelines and Costs, State Specific Notes, Systems for The Note Business, Collection Time Tables, Note Conferences, Bankruptcy in Notes.. 

I'm a Licensed Real Estate Agent in Upstate NY - more specifically the Capital District outside of Saratoga Springs, NY. 

What can you offer in return?

Incidentally, what I posted is how home loans work in most countries on the planet, the kiddy-glove 30YF is the exception globally, not the norm.For a new and inexperienced developer, banks don't currently have appetite, so model your numbers on a hard money loan at 12% to 15% (I do not offer these).

Some landlords offered more expensive rent for a 9 month period but the math didn't really make sense (half month savings at most) compared to a standard 12 month lease. 

If its specific to the Detroit, MI area even better.Thanks
