I have an idea of an initial investment and returns I would like to hit, but would love to speak with those of actual experience to see if my numbers are realistic.

Nobody ever went broke over a duplex, I know this now,  but I have to admit I had some serious doubts about this when I started 16 years ago, I bought every course I could find, already on CD's, this was post cassette tapes lol, and I paid RichDad Education for a one year coaching program (turned out my coach was a girl in a call center without any actual experience). 

While it will not reduce the actual cost it will help with the monthly cash flow.I am curious if this was a single-family house converted into a double.

I was wondering if anyone has these same issues in their market, and how they've been able to skirt the mania and actually find real serious deals.

After talking to support (who were actually quite responsive and helpful), they told me I had to publish the ad with only one photo first and then re-post the ad with additional photos later to force the first photo to be first.

So, I would try to gauge the perception because that is mostly actually affects you.

The model flagged listings that could likely generate more revenue with better descriptions.4.Market Comparison: Using Zillow Zestimate APIs and AirDNA, they compared similar properties in the area and forecasted how much more the property could make if the photos and descriptions were improved.5.Property List: All of this data was organised into a Google Sheet for further review.6.Automating Outreach: They used Claude to generate personalised outreach emails and DMs to homeowners, pitching offers for the properties.The entire process revolves around identifying undervalued homes that look worse online than they actually are.Has anyone seen anything like this?

Has anyone who invested in non performing notes at Prereo actually been paid after selling the property?

PS: I guess the best agent will be the closest to the actual price once you do your research!
