That is, how well did your deal analyzer estimates match the actual rehab costs, holding costs, ARV, and profit?

My point is, you are on the right track with your thinking, so now to the "HOW" to actually get in, if like me, you don't have an in or connection.First step is likely to get licensed, if you aren't already there are some other ways to get in the door and be helpful but licensed means they can pay you cuts of the deal and its less upfront cost and risk to them in helping you out.  

I actually bought a flip. 

The truth is you can never get it "accurate" as the actual numbers will fluctuate year to year.

You can actually still find deals where I live in the (very) low 5 figures, and in some cases, still in the mid 4 figures.

I looked at their books at that is their actual expenses at this point.

City proper has been on 5 year bear market completely unrelated to anything political, the suburbs have been adding inventory since the summer but are still very low but any measure and have actually gotten tighter the last few month, while I am open to the idea these cuts could eventually have some effect on the market, about 20% of the dc area is federal employees, let’s say the federal government cut the work force 25% which would be huge, that’s 5% of the population, but a good number of those people are either two income households where one person works in the private and/or the person being laid can go get a similar job in the provide sector l, the percentage of households who would be forced to sell thier house over this is likely in very low single digits.

I'm actually hosting a free cold calling challenge in January actually!

I'm not sure of what exactly, but something led me to start connecting with others here and do my best to actually stay active.

I never was able to find a pad split rep that actually seemed to cared that much to discuss my property.
