In contract for a duplex in Columbus just east of Marion and Hungarian village. Needs total reno. Agent and GC suggested condos and selling as flip rather than rental. Does anyone know about this process in The city? ...

Not sure whether you’re allowed to record conversations without the other party’s consent in CA, but you could at least install some security cameras on the property.

Hi all,Wanting to open this up to conversation.

When I spoke to the first PM that said they waive the security deposit, I was ready to end the conversation.

Definitely have had conversations with Roofstock in the past as well, but thanks for the insight!

Conversely, you could buy multiple lower cost properties (which usually, but not always means less appreciation) in markets known for cash flow.

Mehran,From our conversation we had on the phone I figured I could mention this here too.The land trust is treated as though it does not exist. 

I truly believe this and I thought I could do far better conversion than anything else out there with my own content.I basically chose carrot because of their behind the scenes awesomeness, site speed, conversion, Jake if you read this, I love you dude, my smexzie bearded man you.. bro-love of course.

I am not sure that the current owner will allow me to converse with the current tenants (I am not sure why this would be a problem, but apparently it is for some). 

@Vince Lucas definitely better at networking and talking with people face to face than anything else but I'm looking for some creative ways to bring in more leads to that I can spend as much time possible having those face to face conversations with Home owners
