*points to corner*Now lets git on that new fangled world wide web, and do us some searchin'!

Is there anyone in Rockford, Illinois or closer then Chicago less then 50 miles from here who I can network with on Real Estate & who has an interest in WHOLESALING (flips) & REO's.Thanks

Currently mentor to over 100 nation wide students whom target local clean notes and we market them back to the buyers at discounted prices.

You can do financing but I know for sure with Country Wide they want a preapproval from the mortgage broker.

Do you find the investment clubs helpful as an area to network?

I would love to tell everyone possible about the deals we have exclusive to our company, but have no clue as to where to start my network.

I have over 6 years in the Real Estate industry and I am looking to network with other Professionals

If you plan to focus on SFRs then might as well get your license, but if you like commercial, I would either network with investors, or work for one of the commercial firms.

The best ways to find deals are:1. bandit signs2. letters3. door knocking 4. networking like crazy (everyone should know that you are the "subject-to" guy, or the "lease option" guy.

However, this whole moving-the-house business is bringing up a bunch of new issues.a) We've found a lot close by that has a junker single-wide and a blown septic system.
