Quote from @Roger Flot: Its interesting because on their website they boast a 92% rent collection rate (even during Covid?)

We have priced the portfolio based on cash flow only, which boasts a healthy 9-10% leveraged cash on cash return year 1. 

Are women just not aggressive enough or not boasting enough?

I am looking to connect with investors in Alabama...I have a few properties in Atmore, AL mins away from the casino is anyone is interested.

I see properties for sale on Craigslist and they always boast of strong rental income, of course ;).

But for right now the only buyer I would trust is someone with the actual cash. on the flip side we had 5 closings this last week  One hedge fund  One refi  ( big one ) One sale to owner occ ( Vegas and they were laid off from Casino just needed to get a letter from Casino that they will go back to work in 30 days which they did and FHA funded) payoff from 2 turnkey buyers one a US citizen the other I think from South America and one other owner occ all of these in different states..  

My stats improved when I changed my approach to attract only sellers of certain types of property-vacant and needing repair.I changed my methods of marketing once I observed that the things I was doing to attract deals just did not produce the correct result.Credibility and confidence closes deals.When I talk with the seller about the several rehabs I am doing(to not boast,but subtly work funny stories or even horror stories about my contractors naturally into my conversation) they know they are dealing with someone that will close the deal.Sellers are making the largest deal of their life and are afraid of making a mistake.

There is a coach that boasts a 33% response. 

So if an inexperienced sponsor boasts "conservative underwriting" because they pace rent growth at inflation instead of its current, above-average rate of growth, but then underestimates cap rate decompression by 50 or basis points -- well, that's not actually conservative underwriting.

Tenant is a blackjack dealer at a nearby casino, has verifiable income but no landlord refs...has been living with her grandmother.
