Many realtors are not going to work in low value asset areas as those are generally rougher neighborhoods that are probably deemed to unsafe especially for a single women agent to be out there.

I am still not sure how he gets positive cash flow while repaying 5 year loan back, unless he charges buyer in excess of 17% for 30 yr fixed loan and pays very low interest to PML lender.

Is there a way to have No money Down or Low money down? 

Also the hit rate per property is really low.

A a low-temp sensor be added for you to be called if the temp falls below 55º ?

Avoid leading with a low offer or mentioning how long it’s been listed.

Low cost + high rent/value ratio.My market of Middle TN doesn't have any livable property for that price and the 1% rule isn't very realistic. 

Well this is going to be more mandated by your investor base than anything a mentor can help you with (i.e. there are groups raising money targeting low double digit returns, with limited cash flow, and other groups that need to show mid-20s to get investor interest).Lastly, if you are looking at a mentorship: really hammer on HOW they will help you be successful. 

In the one house that I still have some existing, it's only on an overhead light circuit with no insulation around it, and I minimize the load on the circuit by using only low voltage LED lights. 

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: Assuming you pay asking price, I'd estimate the down payment for something like that using a hard money loan (HML) would be around 40% of the purchase price and your monthly payment would be $2,600 with an interest rate in the low 7% range (probably need a 700+ credit score to get that).
