Competition..However, most investors are not aware of off-market properties..But not any off-market, the undervalued ones.These Deals are gold..Most investors don’t know how to really get them .Some do direct mail , cold calling , chasing people down and begging for deals.And except to get those deals.The Thing is those deals are not on the radar for a reason.And to get those deals, there is a very simple set of requirements that need to be met and systems that have to be implemented .Once you know these requirements and systems, it's just a matter of executing them properly and with consistency..And the undervalued off-market deals will come to you.It really is that easy….I’ve getting off-market properties for over 3 years now without even working to get them.Like 2 years ago I got this off-market deal and it was just a piece of land in the desert .For real .And I took it for 20k.No one I know didn’t make fun of me.They call me stupid .But I trust the requirements and the systems.Now 3 years later this land is worth almost $700.000 ($642k).It's all thanks to the fact that I can find undervalued off-market properties..And no, I start with nothing and zero connections..But that doesn't matter, because you don't need to have the connections, to be a sweet talker or have millions in the bank.If you’re sick of finding deals .Then all you need to have are requirements and systems to get you off-market deals.But please just don’t think that cold calling is the way.It’s sad.I will write another post about the systems and requirements to get those deals.just be open-minded that there are systems to get off-market deals.And that’s why some investors make millions and some don’t .They have step-by-step systems that guarantee getting those deals.Thanks for reading,

The exceptions where you need to keep the bill in your name are when they are combined between units like your water and also utilities provided by the municipality or municipal authority.

The catch is that the populations are all recent.. recent as in, massive booms in the last 40 years when suburbs ruled the development world, and density didn't necessarily increase except in the most urban and highly commercialized sections of the city (city centers primarily, which is mostly class-A prime real estate). 

So I've presented these same things to a few builders we know and they really have no real good responses to the above except that site build is better, then modular and manufactured is junk.

Except, for properties with an ARV greater than about $350k, I can show that the rehabber will earn a profit between about 12% to 15% of the ARV using 75% instead of 70%.

No exceptions.

The exception was when I rented to a lovely couple who had been living in town for several years.

I focus a huge amount of time on tenant screening and providing exceptional property management/customer service.

Period.There is only one exception to this and it's when underwritten with Freddie Mac. 

However, I seems like you’re more concerned about getting some VALUE from this, like any investment.First attorney I consulted with (over 40 years ago) wasted my time and money and taught me nothing except that he was ignorant about topics I wanted answers to.
