Just make sure u send a vote my way ;)

Also you should become a Private money lender and that would give u a more diversified portfolio.

What's your PM, if u don't mind me asking?

For a small building, just make sure it's in good shape and u have the right tenants, and there will be very little managing to do.

If u have questions on how it works or need tips PM me.

Hi, They are all right, it is a hot zone, u can cashflow only if u are willing to deal with turnover; looking into section 8 and so on.

@Aleksandra U.

I think what U will find is your not the only one with this idea.. someone in default will over the course of their foreclosure get HAMMERED with direct mailthe bank will be talking to them sending them letters pretty much weekly. people like you will be drilling them.. so competition is fierce.. at least it used to be in our market before the laws changed.. but not everyone knows the laws or follows them.Bottom line though this I know is true having bought hundreds of these.. homeowners are in massive denial.. they are not motivated until usually the 9th hour.. you can find an occasional one that will react early in the process.. but usually that reaction is to list it and sell it.. now if your in an area that has limited sale activity to homeowners  and most the transactions are to investors for rentals.. that would be a leg up.. as those areas are dominated by wholesalers..

you don't need to own a title company or go through a title company to transfer title in any state city county in America  that's what makes America great its all open to the public.. so that's your challenge learn how to do this on your own.. its relatively easy once U figure it out. especially with those that have free and clear assets.some states require the tax's to be current to record your docs  ( state of Washington). but not sure in Ohio. 

Do u know of any BP meet ups in the area?
