@Alex Brandt This video should answer most of your questions regarding the legality behind wholesaling in Ohio https://www.youtube.com/watch?

I look forward to interacting with the BP community and eventually taking the plunge! 

I just posted a video on my YouTube channel about questions to ask a sponsor to vet a deal. 

I look forward to interacting and sharing knowledge and experiences with everyone

I would like to buy patents and license them (there is no money in photography or video these days - the microstock websites have killed that niche).Real Estate - I own single family homes that I bought as distressed property - I'll continue to do that if an opportunity presents itself and I'm liquid, I have some property tax liens on land I am foreclosing on (with a plan to seller finance the properties if I successfully foreclose).Stocks - I have a VERY small tax deferred portfolio - I like Ford (is that contrarian?)

You should be able to get layouts and specs and even a video of the home from the manufacturer or dealer selling you the home.

Grant Cardone tells a story of sending his intent via video to the seller.

I think it is best to get a referral from somebody who has zero conflicts of interest and whose only interaction with the PM is as a satisfied customer over a long period of time.

Yes many of us have invested in training, but you can learn by reading, watching videos (such as mine - no I don't sell anything.

I will need an agent who is familiar with the area and willing to provide detailed photos/videos of these houses.
