If it's "not your thing" then you are more likely to screw up, get tired, and watch the entire thing fall apart.

Quote from @Hassan Kareem: Hi Sean, hopefully you’re not tired of these replies, but can I get a copy of the log book as well.

If my stories scare them (and they often do), they should NOT be investing in Detroit.But I'm equally tired of the narrative that these sorts of houses don't work as cash flowing investments.

Thus, they will contact every owner they can that has a rental being advertised, hoping the owner is tired and just wants to dump a headache of a property for 60-70% of market value.

It was clear there were some problems beyond being "tired". 

So, a couple of years down the road, your seller gets tired of being on the loan and contacts the bank to get off of the loan. 

I've done a lot of DTS marketing and found that almost all my leads were either tire kickers or if they actually wanted to sell, the property had so many entanglements (multiple family members involved, tons of debt on it, municipal liens, etc.) it wouldn't even be worth it.

Of you’re tired of endless negotiations, shotgunning offers to sellers who have no intention of selling, or chasing every “deal” that’s never going to be sold at a price an investor can profit, give this method a shot.  

And virtually all of them had owned rentals and maybe kept a few but were just tired on the TTT but wanted monthly cash flow . so there probably is some of that at play as well Investors that dont want to deal with the PM aspect of owning RE..

I get tired of people saying, but you have A, B and C.
