Do you want an education or a profit that warrants the effort?

If they didn't change the goals etc. through out the whole thing I would have been able to walk away with 75k in profit.

It took about 6 months of which I did the majority of the work but I was able to turn it into a 3bed 2bath house and sold it for $140,000.00 and a nice $50,000.00 profit.

I think we can still profit but not as much now.

I can find deals with 100k profit after a 100k rehab. 

My two cents of thought is this: if finding properties is so difficult, you have to get on the other side of the problem and profit from being part of the solution.

This swift transaction showcased our ability to identify and execute profitable deals efficiently.

However, if you can manage to find the very few who either don't want to be an investment owner or would prefer to upgrade their capital into something more profitable for their stage of life, launch on it.

You have to be willing to play the long game and overpay with the intent that eventually after renovations you will take maximum market rent and turn a profit.

Some markets need a higher-end build out to be profitable others going basic on finishes is most effective.
