@Jarrett Harris I love Hammond and all of Lake County, IN. I

As I am getting closer to being able to jump in, I wanted to start creating connections and learning my market through other investors in the area.I have big dreams, big ideas.....i've been studying for the past 5 years every avenue of RE investing....leaning towards the buy and hold strategy with small multi families and single family homes.

But I never really "lived" there so I'm not too familiar with the neighborhoods of the city and what the less risky ones would be to invest in. I

@Kevin Lewis That's the city I have a house in. I

Like it is in CA..Or if pooling money for a Mortgage needs to be done through a REg D filing anyone one of the 500 series.Any one have first hand knowledge about this in IL.And or the states they work in. I

Thanks @Jay Hinrichs@Bill Jacobsennice to see some locals weighing in. I

I will probably be focusing on flips with maybe a rental or two thrown in. I

I have an LLC in another state where I do business, but want to keep that separate from my wholesaling.My question is whose name should I wholesale in?I
