I'm curious to know how others are finding their investment opportunities.Do you guys have a go-to realtor or network for sourcing deals like wholesalers?

If you read the hud guidelines & local ordinances really carefully & integrate them into your lease agreement you'll find the barrier to ESA is higher than most people think. 

Aim for terms that align with your investment goals.

I would not trust an average number.This will be very specific to your management, your lease, your leased property, the area etc.Some people have made money, but I've not heard much about arbitrage lately, and some have lost money and  not honored their lease.In general this is just a job and not an investment, so it's widely discouraged in this forum.

It’s important to choose someone who can provide a thorough inspection and report quickly, especially since you're making a significant investment without seeing the property in person.Best,Jackson

Hey @Yitzchak Eliezer ben Chanan I happen to live in New Hope and invest in other areas. 

Just wondering what common practice is for most other investors who invest out of their home state.
