Its in Seattle,  which is very anti landlord and only getting worse.   

@Tori Roy, I can’t point you to the court records, but I remember learning that anti-trust laws prevent NAR from limiting MLS access to Realtors.I think the solution for you is a no-frills, no-desk-fee broker plus signing up for your local MLS without joining the Realtor board attached to it.I’d suggest doing a little googling, then calling your local Realtor board and inquiring (dare I say “badgering”) them about buying MLS access without joining.Good luck!

There are still profitable deals out there, but much harder to get to due the hot marketplace and also state regulations that is anti equity stripping.However as a whole saler you can only reach them before NOD is served unless you want litigation,  which means time is against you since you have a limited window of opportunity.

And he's very anti-guru, which is nice.

If not, could anti done recommend an app for that?

But if they sell to me its clean and easy and done.. but I am buying for profit or loss.. always used that terminology.So your hoarders and others semi weird folks who just did not want to deal with the public or distressed ( prior to the anti equity stripping laws that came into Oregon and Washington I am sure your aware of the dangers of those if you violate them) came into effect.if your honest with folks they will either let you buy it or list it..

Anti-Flipping regs.

Demand is adjusted, it's built into the price, and it's a self anti-fulfilling prophecy.

That extra sauce in Bay Area is limited land and anti-growth activism.

Boulder is a tough market with a median price over $1,000,000 and the anti-growth rules in place.
