Maybe Jacque will pop back on and again confirm that they no longer make it mandatory to buy there APP or information package.. and AGAIN I am not anti guru or information selling by any means I have done tonnes of business with Gurus over the years and the back end fulfillment companies that run them that are like DHM all based in Utah.. its an industry there in the Provo area..

I've narrowed my strategy down to two routes: send mailers out to my county tax delinquent list, or select a neighborhood that is mainly vacant but is fully platted and has some new construction popping up (there is a specific neighborhood I have in mind). 

The subway tile with black grout really pops.  

Example a retail center with all mom and pop tenants might be a 7.5 cap whereas national tenants with 10 year leases could trade at a 6.5 cap rate etc. 

The first question that pops into my head is what class property is this?

I've never felt that they tied me in to full time work, I pop in the office to drop off & pick up checks, that's about it.

Save some reserve to handle the inevitable issues that will pop up after closing (vacancy, unexpected maintenance, etc.)

At the end of the day, the time, stress etc it saves me its worth it.Also for handyman work, they will typically charge you a minimum price, like $200 for a call so its good to have a list of multiple items then just calling them every time something small pops up.

Lots of times we have to spend add’l money to get a property to pop up on the rental sites.  

I'll keep my head up for potential properties that may pop up.Thanks for being honest and sharing!
