Like if you were playing darts and closing your eyes and throwing the dart, hoping it at least lands on the board somewhere. 

Hey BP,Currently working with an buyer and they've set their eyes on a nice fourplex that cash flows well and meets most if not all his criteria.

I figured this will give me an idea as to which areas a contractor may excel in and which areas I'll need to keep a closer eye on.The other key learning I have is specific to the process I used to create my SOW and my material list. 

I have been eyeing land in Washington county NC and Hyde county NC for big game (500-600 lb. bear) as a hunting destination... just so many opportunities in a lifetime to pursue;) Ohio had a windfall several years back with the fracking revolution.

One of my weakest spots is in doing repair estimation and really needed some eyes on with someone that had experience.Find local lendersI was skeptical at first.

@Matt Smith keep an eye on Sharon Heights, Columbus Ohio.

Well, If you want to invest in MI and you know where u plan to live, start looking in that area and ask friends and family to keep there eyes peeled as well.

I’d cut my teeth elsewhere, gain traction while keeping an eye on Memorial.

Talking to local mail carriers and offering them $500 for every closed lead they give you, so have them keep an eye out for properties that are in disrepair or if they know anyone selling.

I toured the home with interest to buy, but he seller was obviously (in my eyes) trying to hide the sticker.
