Has anyone in Southern California marketed their Wholesale opportunities on the local MLS?

Areas near Ohio State University campus are solid (Old North, Clintonville, Worthington), Nationwide (short north arts district, Italian Village, Victorian Village, Grandview), Nationwide Children’s Hospital (German Village, Schumacher Place, Merion Village, Southern Orchards, Old Town East, Franklin Park, Bexley, king Lincoln, Near East Side).

However you live in Southern California, so you live pay check to paycheck.

If anyone knows of any events in the southern Maine, NH area that would be appreciated!

I would like to incorporate some of these ideas into a meetup I would like to begin hosting in the new year here in southern Wisconsin.

A little background first, I’m in Southern CA, It’s my primary residence and not my forever home.

I'm currently living in southern Wisconsin and have just put my investing company together.

I think long/medium range plans for the future are another key to financial success.1) I was born in, grew up, and went to college (and graduated) in Southern CA. 

So far here is my progress, having started less than a week ago:- Initiate a search with Brad - He is a licensed agent as well as an investor- Visit a couple distressed properties in southern Columbus- Call several hard money lenders - set up meetings accordingly- Call a few inspectors - I have one ready to visit a property once I close- Call GCs - I have one GC who seems to be a good fit although I expect the renovation to be very challenging- Made a deal analysis excel sheet for calculating my offers (I prefer making my own)- I added a "Factor of Safety" for my renovation time and cost- With time and experience, I'll hopefully be able to adjust these- Accepted the fact that this is going to be very difficult with many obstacles to overcomeThroughout this process, any advice, critiques, etc. would be very much appreciated.

The spreadsheet on BP forums is admittedly conservative but I am not a very optimistic person, and my past experience with renting out my SFH (sold now) has taught me to be conservative as well.FWIW, I live near Southern NH, and Nashua NH has some good rental properties.
