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.

I'm organizing four events across the US for local short-term rental hosts to come together to have a beer and chat about challenges they've faced and things they've learned over the year and swap a few stories.

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

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 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.

That's still $1,000 to $1,200 more than I think is reasonable for what I am having done.When I turned in my taxes, she expressed that she was shocked at how organized my tax prep was.

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.
