For example, you can get a home in the Cleveland area for below 6 figures and they will perform very well!

Secondly, even if you feel a desire/need to sell a non-performing property, the 25%+ equity that you (should) already have at all times using the BRRRR strategy means that you can pay off its mortgage upon sale at ANY time.

I'm looking to connect with wholesalers in the area who can add me to their network of investors as well as brokers who frequently perform in-house deals before they reach the market and MLS. 

@Nathan Bell yes they want you to cash out or refi in whatever terms you have in your loan.You also want to cash out asap as the loans are 10-15%.But think about it - would a lender foreclose on a performing loan?  

You sign a quit claim deed to undo the deal if you don't perform.  

@Greg H.I am not a realtor, so I shouldn't be bound to their code of ethics, regardless, these people are only interested in working with me because they do not like the performance of their agent.

The business is established and is currently doing around 1.8 million in sales per year and is under performing!  

Our company policy is to always get a list of repairs and cost, including dates of when performed whenever an appraiser goes to an inspection.

One of the is that to get close fast with them and you don't have to worry about them not performing.

Many hedge funds found this out as well.. they first wanted the homes rented and performing then realized the providers were too aggressive putting tenants in .. then they wanted them vacant so they could vette the tenant and have their own management.. the Aussie companies I know went that route as well. they wanted to separate management from the provider.. either way I look at investing in rentals in any given market however you come by them as wanting to buy homes in areas that are receiving the top 20 to 25% of the median rents...
