While I am sure there are good operators on those sites, my impression is it is sort of the lazy way out.  

Good afternoon, Bigger Pockets, my name is Taben Tucker i served in the army for four years i have a wife and two kids and i currently live in northern Virginia.

@Josh Carpenter Many years ago I had wine and appetizers at my bed and breakfast every afternoon for my guests.

Humans are both greedy and lazy by natural design, and these types of deals appeal to both facets; you don't have to do anything and you get disproportionate riches.

First of all - most people (including real estate investors) are lazy and will always gravitate towards promises of quick returns / passive income promises.But also - what you are describing is something that AirDNA does extremely well and automated - it can be a little pricy, but way way more effective and accurate to do this with that tool - highly recommended

I have about a 23% return Bitcoin right now is at an all time high going over 20k today hitting 21k early afternoon.

Good afternoon BP family!

Good afternoon everyone, I currently have new construction coming up where I am sourcing construction loan quotes from multiple lenders.

Another thing I like to do is go to the Olive Garden or Carrabba's around 2 in the afternoon when they are not very busy and order just a coffee and sit with the contract and read it. 

Agreed, I was too lazy to run the numbers yet, being dissuaded by the not so promising prospects in either option.
