Experienced investors often see the holiday season as an opportunity due to reduced competition and motivated sellers willing to negotiate for faster closings.

I found this deal through a conversation with other condo owners, who mentioned that the seller was motivated to sell.

Not 2-hour morning routines or more education/inspiration/motivation/etc.

If it's listed on the MLS there's motivation.

Tax writeoffs are a big motivator for sure but not my sole reason for being in real estate.It sounds like investing in a condo in a place like Branson may be one of the only viable options for me, basically I'm looking to diversify to have more than just LTR's at this moment.

I am particularly interested in:Understanding the fundamentals of wholesalingNavigating Texas-specific real estate laws and regulationsBuilding a strong network of cash buyers and motivated sellersLearning effective marketing strategiesAnalyzing and evaluating dealsIf anyone is willing to share their experiences, tips, or resources, I would greatly appreciate it.

By find a solution to aid me for the mean time, like unemployment benefits etc.Please if you do comment with ideas or suggestions to be motivating.

The 4-8% management fee,  and getting charged for every basic maintenance task, they are not motivated to get you best cost on bids and usually add a percentage for supervising, did i mention its a 90 year old building?...

Ready and motivated to get on it and grow now all over the USA and internationally if possible and convenient.

The additional income from STR could justify the renovation costs, but it requires active management and market awareness.LTR or Break-Even Strategy: Renting long-term might simplify things, but if it only breaks even, you’re right to consider if appreciation is enough motivation to hold.DIY Basement: DIYing the basement could increase STR appeal without the full $50K outlay, especially if extra space attracts more bookings.
