@Chris Morris have ALWAYS seen bad "deals" from rookie wholesalers that really don't understand what they are doing to provide value to the industry.It's getting worse because the real estate market has recovered from the 2010 Crash, yet many are still using tactics & methods developed during this time.Everyone in the industry needs to go back and look at what was being done BEFORE 2010 and start using those methods, updating them with current technology.

Developing? 

If you don't have the funds yourself, you need to develop a solid relationship with those that do.

Build a strong team, prioritize cash flow, and take the time to understand the local market and regulations, especially for development projects.

Anyone that is looking at your assets is always going to need to factor in property management, so you can show that as a real expense (and really make it as high or low as you want).I work in a vertically integrated real estate and development company, and I cannot imagine how things would run if we did not have an internal property management company that essentially works for the other companies but also stands on its own.

Depending on the number of jobs and number of new development going on in the area it may just be simple supply and demand.

Incensed deal flow by developing a large list of contacts of commercial mortgage brokers using LinkedIn.  

Plus macroeconomics here in Columbus is booming right now because of developments from Intel, Meta, Amazon, Honda, and lots of major companies building out here.

I'm an experienced builder and developer looking to network with other developers, investors, and syndicators. 

Where I differ with most of the posters on this thread is that I feel solutions can be developed to address the problems and something similar to what the OP suggests would be viable.
