if you can house hack, house hack.good luckHi Nickolas,That is definitely solid advice and I definitely see your point.

I think this is steep given the list of damages so I was wondering what might be the best strategy here or if anyone has any advice?

Here are the facts and I'll advice you all to decide for yourself.Problem #1: Lack of communication: For close to 2 months from the time I signed a contract with HWPM, I was able to reach a human behind a phone for a sum total of TWO times.

Any advice on where to focus to scale up?

I have started to wholesale since April 2022 and been trying to get wholesale deals under contract to assign to end buyers as I got 6 deals under contract since I have started taking action but ended up by cancelling them for some reasons.Any advice about what is the best quickest strategy to close my first deal in less than two weeks?

Since I've never dealt with previous tenants, I'm looking for some advice on the best way to move forward...Unit 1:- Studio Apt- I did a walkthrough last week and spoke to the tenant; he mentioned the only issues he's had in the past year and half is that the cold comes through the windows- He and the owner both confirmed that the tenant is month to month and paying $750, but so far the owner has not provided a lease.- The owner did provide proof of payment, and rent is confirmed $750, but always a few days late...Unit 2:- 1 BR- There was a language barrier, she didn't speak english, and I think she was afraid to open the door so I didn't get to tour it.

Finally, any advice on finding local, in-person meet-ups for real estate and investing? 

Avoided more dirt bags than i can count with just those two methods.Thank you for the advice.

Also any experience, advice is highly appreciated!!

Any advice or lessons learned from your experiences is greatly appreciated.Thank you.Marco
