If a property does come ON the market "below" market value it usually get bid closer to actual market value.If you are looking for inspiration on how to be successful @ finding those "off" market deals, take a listen to a variety of podcasts.  

There's a variety of topics and I learn something new from each podcast no matter the topic.It's a great idea to finish your profile including a little something about you and your current RE plans.  

I think I was just impressed by the integration with vendors such as Uber/Lyft, etc, where you have a lot more flexibility with the approach;  variety of drivers/routes, access to several different target markets, and it's less permanent or less focused to just one vehicle like a bus ad or a car wrap. 

Additionally I am partial owner of People's Cleaning, where we provide a variety of services.

We also have a variety of Bigger Pockets meetups in several areas of the state.

I expected the number of responses to be pretty small for a variety of reasons, not least among them, that most people who have been able to hold on the last ten years aren't on BP, whether by choice or by ignorance (they aren't searching for RE information hence never finding or knowing about BP).  

I've been a wall flower on the site for a little while, reading blogs, forums, listening to the podcasts.

Or you could always buy a variety of SFH and MFH

Fresh flowers, baked goods, music etc. 

There's been several threads dedicated to Joint Ventures and there'a variety of ways people set them up.
