@Lashaw Salta Commercial NNN with  decent tenants is much much higher vs other segment.

I think he’s only 21 and he uses a syndication method to invest in large multifamily, but his segment on creating connections to raise capital and partner with no money down will be similar to your current position.

Although that is a very tiny segment of the overall rental market. 

It's hard to stand out.The same will hold true in the markets you mentioned like Cleveland because there are a lot of investors there as well.There are some owner-occupied segments with people who share motivating factors for selling their home.Seniors with Long-time Ownership: often ready to downsize or transition to assistance.Homeowners with Low Financial Stability Scores (FSS): Struggling financially and likely ready to cash in on their asset.Both these categories have additional advantages in that they probably don’t haven’t been updated and may have deferred maintenance.

From a pure build perspective, the house is unique and has some details that a certain segment would appreciate.

The FL market I chose, and moreso, the segment within that market, supports cash flow really nicely, while still giving me enough market appreciation and increasing equity that I can also flip the portfolio if I wanted to, and make a substantial profit. 

One week that person may be the cheapest then next week they are not and if that's all they have to offer they have just lost out.Being the best takes a lot more work and skill.There is a small segment of the market that just thinks of a transaction and hyper focuses on the brokers or agents fee.

So, when you buy a property you are also getting a single tenant segment.

Financial professionals tend to specialize in specific segments of financial strategy - and the results for clients is a fragmented overall approach.I agree with @Daniel Hyman that while there is some benefit to having a financial advisors that are local, that benefit has been greatly eroded with advances in the way business is done.

It will require learning about a new segment of the market, but that is fine and something we would welcome.2.
