Join local investment groups or go to events.

Hi @Jordan McDonaldAs a FW local I have a large investor list that I send out to my bigger pockets investors 2-3 times a week with flips or buy and hold deals that I come across on or off market. 

Hi John, I recommend reaching out to a local property manager (search on Google Maps) with many 5-star reviews to see what legal action you can take before the Sheriff is available to execute the eviction.Property managers specialize in landlord-tenant law and should be able to help you determine a path forward that doesn't require waiting 3 months after the lease ends.

Additionally, getting in with a local broker helps as they can shop around for you.Umbrella insurance is pretty cheap to add on in my experience, so I think it’s worth it.

.#2  Attend local meetups. 

Getting a local realtor to give you and ARV would the best bet but you can use sites such as Redfin (be careful of Zillow's Zestimate) to get you in the ballpark. 

I've never seen anything else however if you're under 1M then you're in local bank territory so it would be bank by bank policy. 

Hi Kristin,If you're planning to finance real estate in Illinois using only your rental income from properties in California, a DSCR loan might be a great option for you, especially since traditional income-based loans might not be feasible without local employment.A DSCR loan focuses on the property's ability to generate income rather than your personal income from employment.

Do you know any local wholesalers?

I would suggest a local bank to get the conversation going.
