It got me thinking about how major developments like this are impacting property values, demand, and investment opportunities around our area.

The last house I bought, was brought to me off-market by my agent, and it's seeming that off-market is the only way to get good properties without the MLS prices.I've recently got a nice business card printed up, and would like to start a direct mailer campaign, using BatchLeads to find multifamily properties in the local towns that I wish to invest in.I have a pretty strict criteria about what I'm looking to purchase at this time:-Legal 2-or-more unit large Multifamily (not required to be owner occupied)-Each unit should be at least 3 bedrooms (so if it's a duplex, it needs to be 6+ bedrooms)-Sewer (not septic)-Gas (not oil)A lot of this information is not readily available online, so once I start my mailers, I'm sure I'm going to find people who eventually respond, but that don't have criteria which match what I'm looking for.I feel like it would be a waste if I paid a bunch of money for direct mailers, and then someone reaches out to me to sell, but their house doesn't match the criteria of what I'm looking for -- I don't know anything about wholesaling.What can I do to monetize these leads, or is the answer is that I need to learn So we believe no lead is a bad lead.

Hello Everyone,I was talking to an investor in regards to financing and his suggestion was to get a 500k loan to put towards all current debt, but wasn't sure all the factors that may be implicated with going this route.My current portfolio has 2 properties (1 LTR, 1 MTR = 370k), and current debts: HELOC at 54k and a vehicle at 40k. 

I am in talks with the lender (Wells Fargo) to satisfy this payment.

I enjoy getting together with people with similar interests for dinner or even just coffee.I am excited to see what I can do with this new endeavor and excited to meet new and interesting real estate investment colleagues.

From my experience so far this is going to be a long and tough process.
