If you're looking for a great way to find off-market properties with less competition is by using a method called Driving for Dollars.

You can sell on financial method because there is such short demand there is all but no comp's to use for comp method, and if selling as turn-key, yup, financial method will be your friend for sure. 

Obviously if you’ve done this before you likely have a method you prefer for dealing with these types of things.

You need to set a deadline for them to correct the issue, then follow up with an inspection or other method to confirm compliance.

that was not a method that Armando taught in the seminars I attended these were strickly how to find BRRR props and rehab them and then resell or refi and keep.. the Markets we worked were Vegas and Orlando and Frankly those investors who actually bought property doubled their money or more with the deals i funded for them and they bought on their own it was 2011 to 2013 which as we know was a prime buying time and had to hand it to Armando he picked two of the best Markets.. 

@Abigail King I mean, I wouldn't classify it as "creative financing" as much but my favorite strategy has been the BRRRR Method for many years.  

I've done extensive research into the options and a lot of the paid options seem to focus on teaching specific investment methods.

But I am so intrigued with the BRRRR method just not sure this is the one for that.

After about a month of no response on FF I switched my method to LTR.

Given your situation, one strategy that could work really well for you is the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat).
