You could have ordered the appraisal earlier in the process....most people don’t want to spend the $500 until they know they are approved, but it usually leads to “we are just waiting on the appraisal”.

Looking to buy my 3rd rental, first time as a cash deal, and I'm starting to get leads from wholesalers. 

Yes, the property was foreclosed on 9 years ago, and since then has been purchased twice (we did some digging online to see what happened since the bank foreclosed on it.

We have worked over the past 3 years to become debt free (student loans) and are now to excited and ready jump into the game.Being new to the area, we do not have many leads on REA who work primarily with investors.

Through my marketing I come across quite a few good leads from people that are interested in selling their homes.

It takes some work seeking valuable real estate; however, there are thousands of opportunities to make a good profit.How to Buy:You apply for the property online; however, you will have to mail-in the payment.

Tenants pay online and then I get it about 5 days later

Also I strongly urge you to file a complaint on line with the Attorney General in INdy it takes five minutes and you can do it on line.. 

While searching online for info on real estate investing, I discovered the Bigger Pockets Podcast.

Any other thoughts or leading questions are appreciated as well!
