There are quite a few Facebook groups titled “out of state investors of X city”.  

As the title says, where are you seeing value at the moment and are you buying?

I ask if they are the only one on title or is there someone else.

Market to sellers3. create a purchase and sale contract and get it to a title company4. find a contractor or home inspector to get a better gauge of repair costs5. find a buyer and assign a contractWhat am I missing?

@Regev Israel keep in mind that duplexes usually are located around other duplexes, and even if you convert to a SFR, it may not hold the same ARV as an identical home with only other SFRs in the area/street. 

@Ned Carey don’t LLC owners get paid when the property sells and the escrow or title companies hand the investor the profits from the deal

He had a real estate attorney in place that he had used on a couple previous deals to handle the paperwork, title, etc...Yes, tired landlords are a good market.

Closing costs are typically the money that you pay to the real estate agent, broker and title company (among other things )

Lots of good Realtors and lenders, title companies and insurance providers as well as Meet up and REIA notifications. 

Bigger issue is if there are violations from prior to the purchase many times those violations do not appear on a title search and there's a buyer everyone should always ask the title company to perform the additional search of all Marion County city in County violations.
