@Kevin Kite- try working with the present lender on refinance  / extension  terms 

I’d suggest focusing on markets with strong rental demand and more affordable entry points—places where your $100k down payment can stretch further and still offer good cash flow.Timing: Interest rates are higher right now, but that shouldn’t necessarily stop you from investing.

Some mentees will act as a bloodhound for the mentor, knocking on doors, driving for dollars, scouring the internet, making cold calls, or performing other services that help the mentor find new deals.

I'd look into AirDNA comps to see performance with/without.

I also pay for performance, meaning if my selling realtor gets my full net-price or better, I bonus them an extra .2% (which would be $2,400 in this example).

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Does anyone have a trusted contact in North Carolina to perform a Cost Segregation Study?

And REOs are notorious for being non-assignable, so students most likely didn't assign to the company.I don't think there is any magic about the Ohio deals I looked at... older properties, low price because of extensive rehab required, REOs, property with high DOM, in the rust belt, ... leper properties.

On top of that insurance for the units went up and so did property taxes so what was once a very profitable commercial rental has turned into my worst performer. 

Your goal should be to have performance cap rates at 7-8% on something with a market cap of 5-6%, which gives you a healthy 200 basis point spread from the going market rate.
