Buying Foreclosure Experience in Ohio.

I have bought some in the past.  Often the bank person that was in charge of them was not anywhere near Ohio.  I would look at the property, put an offer in and keep looking.  Often I would hear no on the offer as the person in charge of the foreclosure would be in some state far away and had not even seen pictures of the inside of the house.  I would then have a realtor call me sometime later and tell me they are selling that property for what I had offered or for less.  Often then I am on to another deal by then.

1. Has this happened to many other investors?

2. When I did look more at foreclosures it was closer to 2008 than now, have those investing in those found it has changed a lot over the years?

3. Could I hear from investors from Ohio and outside Ohio to hear different experiences?   As I often try to help outside of state investors.
