Most also rely on beefed up rents and unrealistic operating expenses in their pro-formas to justify higher sale figures and can generally take advantage of their investor clients who are not familiar with the nuances of the market.Again, my recommendation is to be more active with your earliest investments but if you feel so strongly about a particular market network and partner with the leading developers  in that  market.

It all leads to investment and growing wealth.

Flooring: A lighter or mid gray lvp to compliment (~$3 sq ft material) Cabinets: White shaker style (Lowes/Home Depot, Readily Available with little lead time) Countertops: White Quartz with black veining to match black matte finishes if the return on investment is there or just a nicer laminate (calacatta marble natural stone look)Finishes: Black matte for a modern look or the classic brushed nickel.

Thanks for sharing your perspective—it’s definitely insightful, and I understand where you’re coming from.While I get that partnering with one exclusive buyer might limit your potential profit on individual deals, couldn’t there be value in the consistency and reliability of working with a cash buyer who provides specific leads/addresses and is always ready to close on those deals?

No idea why they would state they're $200 under comps and not doing it themselves so maybe I'll see if I can get that $100K and send you 25% for the lead.
