.: Hello, I have been seeing increasing opportunities recently to bid on non performing notes on commercial properties that banks are trying to offload.These notes usually have the following characteristics:The note has reached maturity several months ago.

You want to rule out needing a variance unless this is a large property and the change would significantly increase the value of the property and/or rental income.

Increase supply (or at least encourage development), and the prices will eventually come down (as we've seen in other large cities like Austin where the demand boom was followed by a supply boom - and now both sale prices and rents have gone down). 

There have been increasing issues with unincorporated JeffCo...

It will also establish legetimacy.... wholesaling is a sketchy business hence anything you can do to increase your credibility will only help your chances at success. 

Here’s the quick-and-dirty lowdown to get you started:1️⃣ Where to Look:LoopNet & Crexi: Good for commercial deals, though the best ones go fast.MLS (Multiple Listing Service): Access through a realtor for hidden gems.Auction Sites: Think Auction.com or HUD homes for distressed properties.Direct Mail Campaigns: Target landlords with older properties (especially those with code violations).2️⃣ Systems for Finding Deals (Step-by-Step):Set Your Criteria: Market, budget, unit count, rehab level.Build a Deal Funnel: Use LoopNet, Crexi, wholesalers, auctions, and brokers.Analyze Quickly: Use a property calculator to see if it cash flows.Direct Outreach: Contact sellers or property managers directly.Get Your Network Tight: Property managers, realtors, contractors—they’ll drop the best leads.3️⃣ What Makes a Good Deal:Cash Flow Positive from Day 1.Below Market Value (usually needs rehab).Upside Potential: Think rent increases, better management, or refinancing options.4️⃣ How to Become the Better/Best:Study the Market Like a Hawk.

@Margaret Buoncora I have never done it but renting individual rooms could be an option if competition is increasing in your market. 

Increasing density can often get strong reactions from residents if they disagree with it. 

Are you finding MTR to be increasingly competitive? 

I'm working to pay off my rentals which will dramatically increase my cashflow in a faster time.
