Sphere of influence purchase - off market opportunity.

Crexi, Loopnet are probably the two biggest but why not work with an agent that can present you with multiple off market and listed deals?

The ones that build out great companies build the skills, then they teach the skills to people to set calls for them, go to appointments for them and they continue to build out their company as a marketing/sales operation that is more fluid to create more revenue. 

Alternatively, put it on the market and give the tenants notice keeping in mind that showing times will have to be done with 24 hours' notice to the tenants. 

What I love about them is they will even accept the higher lease amounts over the market rents if we can show first month's rent and security deposit.

Build - rent - refinance -repeat. in columbus ohio you are buying old houses that are 1900 or 1920 or 1940 and you are in a sellers market. on the other hand you can source land which is a buyers market and build single family homes or duplex or triplexes that will return by renting and pulling cash out on a DSCR loan and doing it again. there aren't a lot of strategies that do this. flipping is different. so many risks. but when someone has a well oiled machine it's all good and less risk.
