This was an off market deal that was completed without realtor involvement.

@Jonathan GreeneThe short answer is it will depend on a few things like the tools and listing platforms that you're usingMy current workflow involves many tools (including Monday.com, Baselane, and Furnished plus other listing platforms).

I would add:Over-leverage: seeing people get owner finance and someone to toss them a total of 100% financing plus the costs of renovation sometimes crushes them even if they come in on budget and have the right ARV as they miscalculate the time it takes to sell as well as forget about all the other costs involved in a real estate transaction.

And how much money should I put aside to give me the best odds of pursuing my goal?

@Williams HerreraStarting investing in real estate involves education, networking, and setting financial goals.

@Kristee BadetHouse hacking involves living in a multi-unit property and renting out others, potentially offsetting mortgage costs and allowing savings for a personal home.

We solve problems that happen to involve real estate.

This outcome reflects our effective project management, targeted renovation approach, and strong collaboration with Ron, culminating in a profitable deal for all parties involved.

Furnished Finder means you will need to have more interaction points to process them and collect payment--- does not mean it's a bad option, but there is less automation involved.

It's like a ponzi scheme but you're involving an adult that literally has no cash or asset to his or her name.
