I was talking to my local loan officer the other day who said they are making zero loans on small rental properties right now because the numbers don't work on any of them. 

I'm a local Realtor since 2005.  

Hi BP Community,Has anyone worked with a local credit union in Cleveland, Ohio that work with real estate investors.

My name is Mahussi Goudou, i live in Austin Mn and i am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with local investors.Thank you.

Markets are local, but I'm always curious to see what's going on in the rest of the country :)  

Hey @Mary Carmelo, I'm based in LA and when I'm looking to connect with local investors I google search for local REI meetups, conferences, and even property listings or developments.

BP needs to develop AI and use Jay answer as the most "trustable" and "genuine" answer without any string attached.I still remember to this day Jay advice to buy the house that's on median price for that local.

@Jennifer Burgener There’s really no reason to stay local with a 1031 company unless it’s just personal preference.

I’d suggest starting with a chat with the local zoning department to see what’s possible and look into similar rezoning efforts.
