@Rachel Seymour-NewtonIf you want to buy off-market deals network with wholesalers and agents in your market that source the deals you are looking for so you can get access to those opportunities.

Both are in a small market in Illinois, where I have family involved in real estate and construction, so it’s been a great way to jumpstart my multi-family journey.As I'm looking to expand, I’m particularly interested in out-of-state investing, since the DC area where I live is a bit too expensive for my investment goals.

The owner is okay with me contacting the mortgage company and getting authorized to get their loan information so that I can make the purchase happen. 

@Jay Hinrichs They called the office, then did a transactional funding app, which is pretty brief.

So lists don't filter motivation.

You could argue tenant never made you aware of the leak so it’s on them but normally that doesn’t get you anywhere.

I have been listening to BP since i was 15 and I am so excited to learn and grow in this community and hopefully to eventually invest with some of you as well.

Turned out they were interested in selling but were needing the income for a couple years, so we negotiated a seller financed deal.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Real estate here has exploded in the 3 years since I got the LOC. paying 5 - 7% in fees for a $95k or so LOC seems ridiculous to me??
