A lot of that is referral based or people find my site online, organically.

I don't really come on this site much anymore.

It's a lot easier purchasing a site that's ran as a "company" because they have systems in place, they have to, and those can be transferred with staff keeping operations in tact.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

I went to a learn-on-the-site program that our local REIA had recently.  3BR/3BA house, owner is probably in 145K after fix up (I know the purchase price, don't know what was spent to get it ready after purchase) and a handful of years later it's now worth 190K. 

I can probably point to a 2-4 unit that performed better than a single family, and I can point to a my own single families that performed better than my duplex.  

We will continue to observe the performance of this property and eventually will build a second house next to it.
