I was the highest bidder and only bidder on a property on Hubzu. 

We're familiar with the area and have been vacationing there for over 20 years.  

It makes us feel that they are trying to hide their identities 2) we could not find any information on the founder of the company 3) could not find any info on the company on the internet 4) when they ask us to pay, they have a discount with Zelle.

Hi Nina, great tips!

I'm working with a contractor for the first time on a cosmetic renovation from out of state.

We offer our services for everything from acquisition, to construction, management and leasing, and sales of investment properties.I would love to connect with other community members (especially those in the Roanoke and New River Valley areas of VA) also looking to grow their real estate portfolio and find great partners along the way.I’d love to help you meet your investing goals!

State/local are determined by your state of residence, not the state the property securing a loan you hold, or property you own is located in.  

Also, do you tend to give lower rental rates in the winter months?

This allows me to get into a great property and leave the bank out. 

Agree with the first part, but not the second.
