So I'm new to the game (meaning I haven't done my first deal yet) and I'm looking to rehab/wholesale deals in the Provo, Utah market.  I come from a sales background so I'm used to trying to get complete strangers to ...

Properties near by with similar finishes and a similar layout.

Might have to be a coffee depending on the time of day we can both get free - I'm not financial free yet so I don't get to drink beer before noon that often. 

My last piece of advice is to checkout your local real estate investing clubs, you can see nearby events with things like meetup (the app) or with google.

I live in around Irvine, 92620 but I am open to any form of investment strategy whether that is a long-distance investment (my resources in finance is limited) or simply pooling money to buy houses in nearby cities.

@William T parkerIiiAre you nearby?

If we continue paying off debt at our current rate, we'll be out from under my student loans in less than three years.Who in the BP community is in the Clark County, WA, or Vancouver, WA area who would be interested in connecting for coffee or lunch?

Also I m 400 miles away but my parents live near by and will be my eyes on the ground.Yes the rehab process is very stressful.

(No pics or anything, so just going off of neighborhood and nearby comparisons)3) Appreciation looks promising - A block away from a huge urban development of an old sears distribution center crosstownconcourse.com4) Reno was said to be around 50kIs it not necessarily a bad deal, but just a lot of up-front capital for the Reno?
