@Ben Leavitt Welcome to BP from a fellow lurker.  

I just relocated to the Phoenix area, and am looking forward to connecting with fellow Phoenix investors.  

@Dakota MivshekIm a fellow newbie, I just found this thread and was wondering, have you scored a deal yet? 

If you appreciate a post that a fellow member put up responding to you be sure to say "Thank You!"

Hi fellow BP's,I am new in real estate business and interested to learn more about flipping house as the starting point.

I've received many different answers from many different parties, so any advice from fellow investors is helpful.

We did  have  any systems that were dated or of concern inspected separately.  

Realtor in Chicago who had to pick up a project that got 7/8ths done by a fellow BP member that I funded... made sure all remaining items got passed... met with inspectors and rehabbers since I am in Chicago... very on top of the escrow process and very detailed I will be giving him more business.3.

Best thing about it is making connections with like minded people in your area.Met fellow member Kris Rasmussen off Bigger Pockets and he happens to live in the same town as me.

The properties are listed as bank-owned on the tax assessor's site and some of the auction dates have past.
