I invest locally in Columbus and Cleveland.

Hey Billy, you said you'll be living in one of the units...Are you local now?

Joining your local real estate investors association (REIA) offers an excellent avenue for such networking.

Or if you were somehow able to look at markets outside the US where local real estate markets are much less transparent.

Thank you @Cameron Moore. i am checking will local insurance agents. hopefully i will get reasonable quote from someone :)

I do have multiple income sources; rentals took over as the largest about 5 or 6 years ago, just a few years before I retired from a career in military/local government.

🗺️Where to find off-market properties:- InvestorLift and any other wholesale aggregator- Make connections with local wholesalers at REI meetups or on Bigger Pockets- Most investor-focused brokers are plugged in with wholesalers and do their own monthly direct-mail campaigns and cold-calling.

However, they perform all of the concierge services including advertising and booking.

Thanks for the shout-out, @Jay Hinrichs.Now that you advertised you have money to lend with no criteria, @Jeff Lawlor, you’ll hear from everyone and their brother, nationwide, looking to extract it from you.
