My downfall here was relying on someone else with no vested interest to relay information, and that will never happen again!

We're relying on wholesalers and off market deals - haven't found anything competitive on the MLS in about a year and we used to look at 5-10 properties/week. 

The problem is that the new lender will not allow me to quit claim the property back to my LLC now that the loan is done.So I have to rely on insurance only which is terrifying to me.

SMS can supplement this strategy but shouldn't be relied on as a long-term strategy.

I've been investing in one market for 10+ years and my vendor list continues to evolve and never had the mindset of assembling a team I can rely upon.

I also sold 2 properties to one out of state and another from Pakistan and the buyer never walked through but relied on the home inspection to determine scope of work or to complete the deal.

We currently net about 1k from the rental now and rely on about $500.
