Essentially though you need to go off-market.

Hey,I am curious if any of you have found good deals on the market that were listed on the MLS for a long time (90+ days). 

What are some other emerging markets maybe with a bit lower to cost to entry for a BRRRR strategy?

Way to many investors were buying properties for more then they were worth with hopes of collecting MUCH MORE than market rent.

This setup ensures every project stays on schedule and within budget, which is huge in a market where timing is everything.3.

Looking for help and suggestions- I want to say I have learned my lesson and now know to use a third party to hold funds.This is my first time working with a private lender/family member.

As a result, this isn’t the kind of market that attracts top-tier PM talent.Your best solution might be to either:1.Take on self-management if possible (and if you’re willing to put in the time/effort).2.Find an individual you can trust to handle these properties, set up very specific instructions and processes, micro-manage them initially to ensure standards are met, and compensate them well to make it worth their while.This approach requires more oversight on your part but can yield better results in markets like this.
