New wholesaler here and my question is how does one select the neighborhood to drive in when driving for dollars. 

If your property has those attributes, you should have a good deal of interest, which will allow you to be selective in picking a Tenant.Contact me off forum and I'll be happy to share my screening criteria. 

Will try to attend as well; Great restaurant and excellent bourbon selection!

Another alternative would be to make an S-election to be taxed as an s-corporation. 

I have to second the notion that it is well worth flying into your targeted market to get a good feel for the area as well as shake hands with your prospective “team”.While selecting markets, most of the top Midwest cities have been mentioned here so from there it is a matter of looking into job growth, development, vacancy rates and weather patterns.

PPC has various applications including social media.Direct mail has many faces and multiple targets.Besides what you have mentioned above, if we assume that networking is all forms of in person communicating, PPC (together with SEO) is all forms of internet marketing, and direct mail to be inclusive of the wide variety of lists and media available, then I can only think of a small number of communication methods you are missing:Email Telephone (Calling and texting)Visual (Bandit Signs, Billboards, TV)Audible (Radio, Podcast)What people usually mean when starting a conversation like this is "how can I spend less and make more" which is a valid question, but my guess is that if you applied yourself more fully to any of the channels you currently have going you could increase your deal flow. 

It is important to protect your business by selecting the appropriate legal entity (whatever the entity may be - corporation, S corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship, limited liability company or limited partnership).

I live close enough to meet tenants after done selecting has been done.Any thoughts?

However, my point from the beginning was that I can paint with that same wide brush and say most (not all) realtors are just as worthless.

We love eyes on Tulsa and welcome you with arms wide open.
