Hello Fellow BP'ers!I am in the process of acquiring more properties to fix and flip/buy and hold, however I have not been getting too many leads.  I have been doing the driving for dollars method, sending out letters...

Greetings BP Network:Does anyone have any referrals for reputable companies that handle rollovers into self-directed IRAs?

The good thing is that once the gutting is done and the handful of flood claims are done (most people didn't have insurance or adequate coverage) prices will be back to normal because people without insurance don't have anyone willing to pay 5/10x the labor cost for them.We were lucky in that our HVAC units worked at the rentals so we've been running those and fans.  

Yes, I am, I'm prepping for my first mailing campaign and I have questions about direct mail marketing.

Without a solid contact (yet) in the construction industry here in Georgia, I am looking to the BP community to pint me in the right direction of  good resource to do this.

I've been thinking about getting in the rental business and could use some direction.

@Matthew CopelandTax Liens and Crowd Funding are pretty much the best options for a smaller account.Most investors will work within the standard financial services space to grow their savings and then switch to a self-directed account once they have the type of funding necessary to participate in more significant non-traditional assets such as real estate and notes.

But there are high end apartment complexes within a few blocks in 2 directions, which have higher rents than this property.

If you've directly worked with and closed a wholesale deal in CT and found anyone who you would like to refer, please let me know.
