Hi BP Community,Has anyone worked with a local credit union in Cleveland, Ohio that work with real estate investors.

I prefer to invest locally to where I live as it eliminates a lot of potential challenges and I know the market well.

If you're looking for consistent rental revenue, search for places with high occupancy rates and rentals that meet your expenses, such in the Midwest with cities like Cleveland and Indianapolis.

I have been searching information today regarding security camera policy. 

You'd probably want to search locally for this - if in West Virginia, first search would be local banks/credit unions or SBA loan providers

To get started, focus on discovering deals by networking with investors, pursuing probate leads, or searching for abandoned homes.

I've used AI that uses Reditt for forum conservation and it's the best.BP has the most very insightful information and tips how to handle residential real estate and rentals, rather than using the old ways of using search engine, it would be excellente when there's AI feature where I can ask something like this "what shall I do when my rental experience this and that happened,etc,etc".... use the LLM that could give input where person that has more like, could have more accurate answer.

I'm a local Realtor since 2005.  

In a typical deal where the buyer is buying a primary residence the buyer is searching deals on the MLS and telling the agent what they want to see.

I was talking to my local loan officer the other day who said they are making zero loans on small rental properties right now because the numbers don't work on any of them.
