Hi Ertha,We have been flipping in Toledo since 2014.One of the first companies to do as many deals as we have 👍We get a lot of deals from wholesalers, disposition managers and believe it or not Craigslist.I feel like there is always a deal to be found on Craigslist.You have to have feet on the ground to inspect, be quick and close with cash.The good one's don't last long.Thus the importance of establishing the right people on the ground before investing in a specific market.Wishing you much success

Appraisers are often generous with their value because they assume you will hold onto the property for 3-5 years. if they knew you were going to sell a couple months later, they would have lowered their valuation.You will lose money with a sale due to REALTOR and closing costs.
