Quote from @Pavan Kumar: Quote from @Kyle Mccaw: @Pavan KumarWinter is indeed tougher for rentals, but taking your listing down isn’t the solution.

As a result, this isn’t the kind of market that attracts top-tier PM talent.Your best solution might be to either:1.Take on self-management if possible (and if you’re willing to put in the time/effort).2.Find an individual you can trust to handle these properties, set up very specific instructions and processes, micro-manage them initially to ensure standards are met, and compensate them well to make it worth their while.This approach requires more oversight on your part but can yield better results in markets like this.

Direct to seller.

Quote from @Shawn Questa: A few times I've reached out to Cash Buyers and they would tell me that they are a part of an Investment Group and that they are ready to quickly Close Deals would be happy to work with me.Later I would come to find out that they are actually a Group of Wholesalers, like me.I guess I would prefer to Work directly with the Investor, Cash Buyer or Flipper. 

So the deal ends up falling out or they take forever to find solutions. 

So I thought about directly approaching human resources of the largest employers directly in the area, hospital in particular. 

If the seller already has an agent, the agent is his/her legal representative so it's better to deal with the agent directly than the seller.

As a starting point: -If they work full time and make $700k a year -Don't want to or can't spend time self managing a short-term rental -Don't have a spouse who wants to take the lead on managing the rentals They are likely not going to directly reduce their taxable income with real estate year-to-year. 

@Jonathan Chan I have a solution for your problem.

That'll help you figure out what direction to aim in before speaking with a bank to figure out how much you can qualify for.
