My local Craigslist is saturated with their ads in the housing section.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

I suspect an experienced local investor would not be scared off by this house because they could physically see and understand how to address the issues in a common sense affordable way.

What I will advice is to have your broker attend the inspections and making sure the buyers understand that every house has a laundry of issues and the home inspectors are just looking for what's unsafe and not for every little thing to be fixed or create issues.Good luck to you and make sure you find a broker that is empathetic and a great communicator.

And of course in REI, that's too local so some will see flat, some will see 15%.

Hi @Maureen McGuire I'm so happy to hear you went with a local mentoring program that allows a hands on approach and personal attention.

It's a bit of a quiet area but local people may find a STR of interest there.

I want to start attending foreclosure auctions to get a feel for how they operate before actually doing any bidding.

What are the local regulations to be aware of?

Mathew, From my perspective you need to talk with local real estate investors and a quality realtor to determine what is needed as well as paint choice options.
