They prefer that you be licensed just so there are no blurred lines of acting in the capacity of a realtor, but that does not mean you can't wholesale in Ohio.The bottom line is Wholesaling is legal because by signing that contract you the buyer has gained "equitable interest" in the property and have now become the "principal". 

We use @Jerry Ta and he has helped to stay away from certain choices and helped us to run comp's as well.So what did we get?

I have lots of clients in the same boat- just getting started and trying to make the best possible choices as they move forward.

Any recommendations are appreciated.Please only list title companies you've personally used and recommend in Frederick County (preferably in Frederick, MD).If you haven't personally used a Title Company in Frederick (City or County) but know someone who does, please tag them below so they can answer.Thanks in advance,Justin

Eviction: $500 for first defendant- add $4.50 for each additional defendantwill advertise on cragilist, hotpads, trulia, rentals.com, my new place, & yard sign at no additional cost. since this is my first property i would like to get some input from you guys to see if i am making a right choice. 

Timothy Murphy III would be my first choice

And, any absolute numbers for "cash flow" or equity are sorta useless without knowing the size of the deal.And, of course it's highly dependent on location, neighborhood characteristics, and the investor's preference for product type.

In most situations, however, replacing it with carpet or with engineered wood (my preferred choice) would be the way to go.

They last longer and are easier to clean.People in our area (tenants tend to be students and recently graduated young professionals) prefer to have a garbage disposal, but it's not a deal breaker.  

For that young person with a young family, the above probably won't apply to you, and hence chances are, buying term and investing the difference is the better choice.
