What are the close by states you'd recommend to look?

You don't have a choice of the sellers agent and if they are bad slow, drop the ball that is where a buyers agent is effective. 

I ended up looking into OOS investing and settled on Columbus as my target market and haven't been disappointed with my choice to do so. 

On this deal, I was representing a moderately experienced buyer whom I have worked with twice previously in a purchase of a relatively new small multi-family building.This is my review of a transaction that did not make it to close, which highlights the process of going through an inspection period with an experienced investor-friendly agent and how that process worked correctly for the buyer.  

How to properly structure these deals as well as the process of closing them.

@Sandrene Smart Hey I also can lend on EMD, double closes ect.

I mainlyplan to flip and hold rentals, but I’ll also be wholesaling whatever deals don’t workfor me or I can’t close on.

I helped a client purchase a property in Roseville (Not Rocklin.. but close) that had an ADU they rented as a mid-term rental.

Must close as a construction loan with the land and budget .

Borrowers who have never been exposed to agency lending can often be caught off guard by the post-closing reporting and inspection requirements.
