It's unrealistic for the OP to expect that, especially with no money to rehab and being unable to qualify for financing being self employed and fresh out of college, and with the property not being a bankable asset.

They just don’t want to feel locked in and you are putting unrealistic pressures on potential good tenants.

I know maintaining 800+ is unrealistic and probably unnecessary in the investing arena. 

Nonetheless, this may just be a necessary correction of course given the black swan event proceeding the GFC causing unrealistic unexpections. 

If you gave your realtor unrealistic expectations, maybe he doesn't want to waste his time looking for a property for you?

I am not an insurance agent, just think $250 a year is unrealistic.

I'm finding many sellers are unrealistic with their asking price and agents are over reaching with ARVs. 

Be careful, as they will use some unrealistic renovation and ARV numbers but you can still find good deals from them.

I get that they don't represent buyers in these transactions and as an investor you should do your own due dilligence... but advertising "great" deals without solid evidence and providing unrealistically high ARV numbers... that should be considered fraud.

There's probably more than I'm not thinking of right now and I'm probably being unrealistic, but this is what I'm hoping for with my next real estate purchase, now that I'm a wiser buyer.  :-)
