Hickory has a decent amount of MF properties too.

I have a decent team built here and good knowledge of the market!

Looking for good tips or resources to learn more about decent markets to invest in. 1.

No template needed, just write the letter out in Word, make sure property address and loan number is there somewhere, write your text and sign and date it.Ok I'll give that a shot and post the outcome. 

I know this is a long shot but what are some strategies everyone uses to find leads?

No thank you.There are still decent exchange options out there, you just just have to find them (we just did) but trust me when i say losing up to 37% to capital gains makes almost any exchange look good! 

Columbus OH , great place for decent cashflow and looking good on appreciation in the next 5 years.

If your finding properties that need light rehab and have nice returns, maybe take a shot on it.Remember, if you are going to finance a first flip you can expect to have 20% down + closing costs + money to start the rehab + reserves.

Have a decent website/social media to show your work, promote yourself well and build your brand, and answer your phone/make yourself available and you should be picking up work in a short amount of time.

If you're looking for wholesales, try posting on Connected Investors.com, it's a decent site for networking although I don't like the CEO.
