Our clients have successfully used the three companies run by these people:  @Bernard Reisz, @Yonah Weiss, @Julio Gonzalez. 

We don't even provide our owner clients with a breakdown of hours & hourly rate for cleaning!

From there, peg your ideal client (use GPT) and when you buy build out the stay to attract those guests.

A rule of thumb I use to advise my clients is: 1) the loan guarantee is worth 20-25% of the deal, 2) finding and vetting the deal is worth 25%, 3) executing the business plan for the property is worth 25% (i.e., overseeing contractors/property managers, etc.), and 4) contributing the money is worth 25-30%.

Most of our clients use Mojo and it works well.

My contacts become my clients contacts.

Even if the house doesn't sell you can get more luxury clients. 

Over 20 years ago when I started a hard money fund a “potential” client asked me to evaluate a potential acquisition for him, which I did.  

I did one last month were my client got 25k or so cash out and was 300 a month positive according to what he told me.

Pat,I have multiple clients who have had a ton of success in PRI buying a 2-4 unit and renting to college students.
