Facebook and google ads seem to become more and more prevalent in targeting potential sellers as well. 

@Reece CarlyleJoin the Ontario Landlords Watch members group on Facebook.

The quality meetups in Columbus are Columbus Deal Makers Sessions, Central Ohio Investors Network (COIN), Columbus Multifamily Investors Meetup, Dublin Flip Houses Meetup (has a different name I cannot recall), Newbie Investors Meetup (which Harvey Yergin, Josh Hively and myself started -- come this Sunday for our 2nd session), COREE (costs money with membership, couple hundred people, education based but still good connections to make).BiggerPockets, Meetup.com, Facebook and Google are the best places to find meetups and the info for those meetups. 

I found this deal through a Facebook add from a motivated seller.

They were posted on facebook .

I've heard good things about Facebook Marketplace and local groups as well.

I also do preliminary checks like previously landlord, employment, online court systems, facebook, etc., so only those that pass this free preliminary check gets passed on to SmartMove.

Definitely join this facebook group in Lincoln.Best of wishes to you. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1556268411365451/

The best NOVA meetup in my opinion is the DMV deal makers meeting (Punch into Facebook to find the group).

Once you have a good deal under contract you can find a buyer in a matter of hours just by posting in local Facebook groups and messaging investors in your area on BP.
