@Ryan ClearyIf you’re seriously considering getting leads from an outside source like Zillow, I’ll give you the same advice I share with my flipper clients:A great strategy for any flipper, investor, or even realtor is to develop their own off-market seller marketing techniques.

Security.

'so compare that to Texas  Governor would have brought in 10k acres and it would been praised up and down the isle.. the state of Oregon had a chance to secure their tech future for the next 30 to 50 years and just blew it..

@David Jenkins I learned from the Lance Edwards Big Money in Small Apartments Bootcamp and applied his marketing strategy and analysis technique to mid-size and large apartment buildings with good results.

All expenses would go on each account and it made year end accounting very easy.Ally alerted us that they are closing our accounts due to our failure to "properly secure" our accounts.

Our realtor wants us to accept an amount equal to the estimates.For anyone who wants the details on the issues: 1) Deck is not securely attached to the house and the stairs are leaning.

But, once I was able to eliminate the non sense and the outdated, and work my way thru the pointless, I was left with excellent strategies and techniques most investors don’t know about and even less utilize.

It comes out that they made adjustments on October 4th, to a few proeprty ledgers  18 months prior (april 2023).Also they  are trying to claim their 10% fee from the security deposits they are holding for me.They’re now claiming I owe them money that wasn’t owed, it’s only showing as owed beciase of the ledger adjustment referred to earlier.This reeks of fraud to me.

As for SFR a pre approval letter is of value because most institutional lenders will close the loan with the main qualification being the buyer himself, as long as the property appraises for a certain value.Loans secured by commercial real estate are much more dependent on the property itself and all its characteristics, not just the appraised value.  

Hey Seth - With your construction background, you're in a great position as leveraging that rehab experience will be a huge advantage when securing financing.
