@Jorge Garifuna 

Thanks for sharing the documents. I close on a property this week in Berkeley, MO and just learned about this new Ordinance. I spoke with the city and luckily the property I am acquiring is already registered with the city as a rental, but a good lesson learned to call the city and verify there are no roadblocks for future purchases. I don't have enough experience to tell you what other St. Louis municipalities have similar regulations. I do know Florissant, MO has imposed some rules on landlords where you have to take an 8hr class, live within 50 miles, etc.

I think most of the auction purchases are Cash only.

@Robert Davis, @Rebecca Meier works for insight title, they are investor friendly.

Hey @Daniel Gutierrez, unfortunately I did not. It was a messed up situation, the brokerage that was working on behalf of the bank screwed up and ended up pulling the property. Everyone on the Xome side was helpful, I can't say the same for the brokerage. 

Property looks great @Michael Shear, nice work! I know you haven't been in the property all that long, but what is your opinion of the area? I've heard it can be pretty rough down there.

I can't say from personal experience but I believe @Rebecca Meier with Insight Title does all that jazz and I know Kristina Spells with Community Title Services, LLC does as well.

Congratulations @Kathy Henley, welcome to STL full time! I started going to the Southside Investment Club (SSIC) meetings a few months ago, they have some great stuff for beginners and they are a little sales pitchy but overall you can get some good points from the presenters and its great networking.

@James G., as @Gregory B. mentioned, the Southside Investment Club (SSIC) is one of the bigger ones in the area, I go to the meetings on a monthly basis. One other that comes to mind is LifonaireREIA I believe they also do monthly meetups but I have never been.

Hey @Dustin Turner, welcome to BP. I feel like I always see, what appear to be pretty good deals on paper over in the Belleville area but I don't know it well enough. Sounds like you have a good background to get started in the REI community. Good Luck to you!

Hi @Gregory J., welcome to BP, its great seeing fellow Engineers and PMPs getting started in Real Estate. Good luck with your goals, I'm sure we'll cross paths sometime in the Lou.
