The kind of people who are on BP at 1030 on a Friday night.

They have less than 10 branch offices and they keep all their loans in house, so they can be a lot more flexible than other banks.I called and visited 30+ banks before I started working with them, so I’m sure you can find one in your back yard. 

I've kind of been an island this past year in terms of market research and I'd love to start comparing data with fellow investors.

However I soon realized, though I kind of always knew, I do not want to do physical labor for the rest of my life.

Look forward to learning more and to contribute to this awesome community.Thanks,RomelHi Romel, pleased to meet you.Decide which kind of investor you want to be (SFR, Commercial, Land, Tax Liens, Passive, HML, Multi-Family, Notes, Fix & Flip, Buy & Hold, “Subject To”, apartments, duplexes, assisted living, REOs, Foreclosures, Short Sales), etc.

In the end, isn't that kind of like buying something just because it's on a 2 for one sale, that you wouldn't have bought in the first place. 

What kind of financing will you get to acquire and rehab the property?

Search the site for recent forum threads on this subject; you will find a wealth of information.I always recommend that OOS investors look for places that are easier to get to and places that you want to visit since you will be going there regularly. 

Personally, I've visited over 20 STL neighborhoods in person, to really get a feel for them.

And, one day, God willing, I'd like to repay the kindness shown the the knowledge learned by sharing and teaching others how to be as free as I will be.
