There are 4 duplexes across the street and they do very well in that rural area since it is close to town but not too far.

My goal is to leverage my wholesaling experience to learn the ins and outs of the industry, and eventually scale up into more complex investment strategies.

A Trust is in place.

@Kris KempeWith $30k in arrears there is probably little to no equity so you would be better off just buying it outright and trying to flip it or wholesaling it - that again is if they are not underwater in the deal.What do they owe and how much is it worth ?

Fix/flip and wholesaling but mainly fix and flip in SF Bay Area.

Shout-Out to an Amazing Realtor for Out-of-State Investors – Melissa Hudson in Cleveland, OHHey BiggerPockets Community,I wanted to take a moment to share an incredible experience I had working with Melissa Hudson, a realtor based in Cleveland, Ohio, who helped me sell my out-of-state investment property.

Say we buy a property for $1 million, but we structure it so it's 0% down but a bank/note buyer is in place at closing to buy the note from the seller at 80% value so they walk away with 800k in cash. 

Whether you're managing a single listing or a full portfolio, your input will be invaluable in identifying areas where platforms can improve host experiences.I've attached a quick 6-question survey that should take only 2 minutes, at most, to complete.

I appreciate every single one of you. 

:D After reading a few of Brandon Turner's suggestions it sounds like I need to connect with buyers in the area and really get to know their preferences, buy boxes, contracts etc.
