It was a true trade-off as the Logan area is more limited in STRs and new builds so ADRs are higher and likely to stay there compared to RRG where the market is headed towards being flooded and there's the potential of ADRs going down like in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area. 

If you consistently analyze properties, recognizing a good deal will be much easier when it shows up.

I’m not focused on volume, but rather on maximizing the assignment fee per deal, compared to doing multiple smaller deals to achieve the same result.My question is: Where can I find sellers with messy titles?

This is not easy to do consistently and effectively.

Phoenix contains a rare combination of elements that have created an outstanding market for distressed property investments, including the following:Cost Savings: Distressed properties are sold below their market value and enable investors to take hold of properties at a trifle compared to traditionally listed properties.Strong Market Fundamentals: Being among the fastest-growing cities in the country, Phoenix ensures a high demand in housing and rentals, hence good potential for resale or income from rentals.Value Creation Opportunities: Most distressed properties need renovations; thus, such situations present opportunities for investors to increase equity by adding value.Population and Economic Growth: Phoenix remains among those cities in the country which are attracting more and more residents and business; therefore, this presents good, long-term appreciation possibilities of property appreciation and income creation.Challenges to ConsiderWhile the rewards can be great, distressed property investment is not without its challenges.

And while nothing is foolproof the most consistent method of finding good vendors is relying on OTHER real estate investors that have worked with those vendors. 

How does acquiring compare to renting a small office or sharing office space with another business in that market?

Meanwhile my two 1/1 condos in Boulder rent consistently.

I have a mid-term rental in Southern California near the beach that is consistently losing money each year.

We are in Tampa so a similar market.We provide a starter set which is clearly communicated to guests (thought some people do not like it and clearly do not read which you cannot help) generally consisting of:- 2 Laundry Pods- 2 Dishwasher pods- 2 Rolls of Toilet Paper per bathroom- 2 Paper Towel Rolls- 2 Trashbags- All soaps are refillable including dish soap, hand soap, and body washes/shampoos.They are expected to get their own should they run out of anything.
