I've been sticking to foreclosures, auctions, and the occasional rough home on MRIS. 

That way, I can occasionally do my W2 work from the property when I need to be there at some point in the day.3.

If you don't have family in KC, and don't necessarily plan to return, the cost of having to occasionally fly there to deal with just one property could make your negative cash flow even worse.On the other hand, if properties can easily cash flow in KC, then having local boots on the ground to manage them for you could be an opportunity to expand those holdings rather than sell.

Occasionally you'll find a notice posted on the property with contact info.3.

Welcome @Seamus Kennedy.I am a cash buyer of SFR in Montgo and ChesCo (occasionally Delaware County) in good school districts.Looking for flips (target 20% +) or rentals in good areas.

Especially not if it's a turnkey property.I have seen two exceptions to this-If there's some kind of unfounded delay on a turnkey property and the company really wants to offload it for whatever reason, I've seen sellers occasionally offer guarantees on the risk items so it makes it worth you closing.

Many investors in pricier areas aim for 1%, in some areas you get the occasional 3%.The 50% "rule" is a quicky was of guestimating expenses.

Most groups will also have some experienced investors, agents, wholesalers, the occasional lawyer or CPA.

I attend seminars or discussions whenever I hear about them and occasionally webinars which unfortunately are often times sellinars.

Area has higher vandalism rates, some crime and occasionally make the news for some shots fired.
