The answer is I have no idea about other companies. 

Insurance companies are always looking for MTR that are furnished like ours  never stays vacant more than a week.

They also prefer not to move out since they are older and are comfortable where they are. 2.

But the deposits did go to an escrow company, not directly to the seller.

Hey Tre,i'm not sure where you work or if you have a preference for location but i have a brokerage buddy who just locked up a househack in Athol.

They would prefer a lump sum and move on.

They are either speaking out of their limited experience or claiming something is legal or illegal based on personal preferences. 🤓🧐  thanks  Scott:)

I know it is still down season, so listings are thin (especially for MF which is our preferred route), but it is starting to discourage me; like we've already missed the train of cheap debt and rapid appreciation/inflation that so many others took advantage of in recent years.Are my expectations set too high for my target area? 

I have several clients who prefer the middle/southern part of the country so places like Memphis, Little Rock, Oklahoma or Texas.

We just finished up our last project in OC and looking for our next flip, preferably single family.
