You review it and because of its attributes (this one only need paint), it’s perfect for your buyer “Fred.”

“Instead of fighting our way into Manhattan or South Beach or Hollywood, why not go into these markets where the product will stand out by its design and thoughtfulness?”

This is attributed not only to a good choice in location, but also the work that we have had done to it.

Because most of the new ones are being built a little further out, the success that I witness and am a part of are primarily resales that the new owner upgrades adding a number of amenities that today's vacationers want and that make the vacation home stand out against the competition. 

I attribute most of those problems to the age and condition of the properties, but she attributes it to multi-family as a whole.

@Mindy Jensen That's a huge stat, and attributable in large part to the folks like yourself that mold BP into what it is.

I understand that people with very little knowledge and experience may see those that do have such attributes as "know-it-alls" but no one knows everything, it just seems so by those that don't have a clue generally.It's impossible to explain how everyone operates primarily due to all the misguided, unprofessional, simple minded, whizbang operators out there doing whatever their imagination can dream up.

It's very hard to sustain that over and again in a heated market.If brokers/agents do not want to work for peanuts then increase your skill and knowledge level to stand out from the herd and work on larger deals.I have never understood WHY investors buying junker houses expect brokers/agents to get all excited about submitting 50 low ball offers and becoming the laughing stock of your profession to make one sale of 1,500 commission.

Also, here's an article I wrote on how to stand out as a wholesaler - might be helpful as you get going: http://beta.biggerpockets.com/blogs/4430/blog_posts/32194-attention-wholesalers-2-ways-to-stand-out-from-your-competition

I'm in the site now still looking over it and I will stand by for any points that stand out.
