@Brandon Shapiro what specifically do people say about these groups?

Are there specific reasons you don't want to rent them out (e.g. bad previous experience with a tenant)? 

The skill comes in sourcing deals that arent only on the MLS.

We've even purchased, rehabbed and then sold properties to specific investors before.

These specific questions should be posed to the agent that sold you the policy. 

The definition of “livable” or “finished” space can be surprisingly specific.In many markets, including here in Arizona, appraisers and agents generally want the space to be finished in a manner consistant with the rest of the home and serviced by a more permanent heating and cooling source.

They can evaluate your specific case and guide you through the process effectively

Specific is how I classify loans toed to a specific property, and generic is how I classify our family loan that is not tied to any specific property, so I have to allocate it myself.

Be specific...."

By focusing your efforts on a specific area, you’ll be able to learn all the nuances and make more informed decisions.Best of luck with your investment journey!
