I used them with a lot of success throughout the years, but they were never a mainstay of my acquisition techniques.  

Is there a standard amount or is it tailored to the project ?    

While the IRS does not mandate a physical site visit, the IRS cost segregation audit technique guide (ATG) does suggest conducting “field inspections.”It’s important to note that the ATG is not an official IRS document.It serves as a guide and cannot be used, cited, or relied upon as an authoritative source.However, the recommendations in the ATG are worth considering.According to the guide: “A field inspection is recommended to document the physical details of the building, type of construction, materials used for construction, the assets contained in the building, the size and types of building systems, and any land improvements that were included in the purchase of the property and the condition of that property at the time of purchase.”So while the IRS does not require a site visit for cost segregation studies, following the guidance from the cost segregation audit technique guide can be beneficial.

Quote from @Jonathan Greene: All of your posts are sales techniques to drive business to you and you dial it back by making it like I was being mean to you.

There are numerous Facebook groups specifically focused on off-market deals tailored to particular areas and conditions.

The 1% rule incredibly flawed, even as a short form underwriting technique.

Additionally, consulting with a financial advisor experienced in international real estate investments can provide further guidance tailored to your situation.I may also be able t find a lender besides a local bank!

Are there specific techniques or platforms you recommend for networking with property owners or other investors who might have leads?

You always want to think about what the guests are looking for and tailor the property to that.

Agents may also have macro data on historical data, local median sale prices, absorption rate, etc to help with your analyses and projections.Networking/build a team: Attend local meetups, virtual meetups and stay active on forums like this.A lot of this will be done in front of a PC unfortunately but if you cut out the noise, you'll be able to maximize your time.Lastly, something that has helped me tremendously with respect to focus and improving efficiency is the pommodor technique.
