its a skill set ...

There is an art to drawing out the right price and not giving away all your profit.

I've done some expensive real estate investment training programs in the 1990's and early 2000's that a lot of people complained about, (or even asked for refunds on) yet each time I did these trainings, I learned new skills and strategies that helped me grow my real estate investment business.  

The ARV, this is a learned ART..

Steve in my mind maybe this works for non owner occ investment props only and houses are vacant.. kind of like an OREO Broker works.For owner occ and mom and pop buyers to move in and live.. this simply is a non starter in my mind.. .To be successful at Real estate sales to mom and pops you MUST have some sales skills and closing skills.

One other thing you could consider, if you have great sales skills and decent knowledge of your RE market, would be investing in some off market leads to try to wholesale - I personally don’t love that option, but there are some people out there that have the right skill set for this.

It requires skills to maximize returns.  

As a self-managing landlord, I used to believe that almost everyone could learn the skill stack necessary to become a competent property manager.

If you have some house skills, that helps, but when you go out looking for partners it usually means money and people don't want to get that vibe in their first conversation.

totally learning as much as I can from others cuz I am still young and don't need much money for now all I can and want to do is that absorbing knoledge and skills from the peoples like you who already doing it but I do wanna stand on my own one day and run my own business.
