Any investors in Wisconsin I could talk to?
Looking at buying my first rental I have about 15k saved up. Just wondering best ways to go about buying a property? What to look out for? Any tips to save money when doing rehab? I'm new to all of this

@Travis C Brown I'd suggest focusing your attention on rental listings on different online platforms, reaching out to sellers and negotiating a lease option with a sublet clause This will likely get you started with a property that would/should not need a great deal of work. If landlords are marketing vacant units, you could be their solution. For example, if a seller is listing a rental(just thinking about my market of Milwaukee WI for example) in a duplex for $600 and the other is occupied for $600, then you could essentially do a rent to own with the seller. Solve their vacancy problem, put a nominal down payment down and find the vacant unit tenant yourself. You can put a long term agreement together with favorable terms and limited risk. Otherwise finding sellers who are open to seller financing through working with a realtor, wholesaler or finding the sellers on your own. All the best!!!
