I wanted to post my experience investing remotely in Columbus Ohio with an active wholesaler and realtor, Sara Elford, and her partner unlicensed Contractor Raymond Kemp.Because the experience of only one person may be “he said she said”, I want to start off with some samples of the written Better Business Bureau response from one contractor in this rehab (“John”) who had experience with Sara across multiple projects: “The key with this being Sara Elford was the contact for her projects and projects with numerous out-of-state investors.”

Second, there are numerous sources of information – which are reliable?

I myself have purchased numerous properties with little to no money down aside from closing costs.

However, we are trying to find a house that does not need a total major overhaul just so we can get our feet wet so to speak and our realtor informed us that painting, putting in granite countertops, tile in bathrooms, laminate wood flooring throughout the house and painting the cabinets does not add value to the house where we could BRRRR it.

If you have something outside of Cook County in the Chicago metro area, especially if North or West, suburbs, would be the safest route in my opinion just for the first time so they can get their feet wet so to speak.

.#3 Raise long-term capital gains tax rates for high-income earners - He wants new taxes, breaking news water is wet.#4 Elimination of step-up basis - Dying won't be a good investment move anymore. 

For example, often fire damage is water damage--they put the red stuff out with wet stuff.

I plan on starting in the single family residential market first to get my feet wet so to speak.

My fiancé is still a bit timid so we decided to take the “safer” route to get our feet wet, now we are ready to jump in!

Our thinking is get our feet wet with single-family, and graduate to multi-family.
