Using a contractor on my second place sucks as I see so many inefficiencies and detect BS stories real quick.

You brought up some legitimate downsides to crowdfunding (it takes time to vet the deals, and that there is in the marketplace online that has experienced a full real estate cycle and a downturn yet).

(Soliciting yourself or others as a contractor in response to this thread is not allowed unless posted in marketplace.)

Basically what I'm imagining is the Marketplace Properties for Sale page here on BP but instead of just forum posts with all the details in text content and images, a database with all of the fields searchable, and then you could do things like apply the BP calculators against the numbers on the properties so you could easily pull up and compare key metrics like cap rate, COC return, etc.

There are several marketplaces for notes and more coming online- Hard to say where the discount would fall without putting it out there- but the more solid the package and the the more in-line with property valuation it is, the easier to market. 

Almost daily I see properties posted in the BP Marketplace and many other REI platforms with terrible deals and a ton of people asking for additional information or expressing interest to buy, and when you look at the profile of the interested party, it's a new investor trying to accumulate doors quickly regardless of how bad the deal is.I don't blame the scammer alone, I also blame the scammed for investing while uniformed.

With all of the “buy in Ohio for cash-flow” chatter on BP it’s pretty much impossible that not a single investor inquiry would happen if it’s a good deal.So post the deals in the marketplace on BP as well.

The house appraised at $340k so we listed at $345k.I have a sign in front yard and also listed it on Facebook marketplace and Craigslist.

Has anyone posted on Marketplace and sold or bought a property.
