So you will not be owner occupying a primary residence.

Quote from @Barbara Potts: Mike, thank you so much for your response!  

I negotiate at 70% ARV so the deals I bring are solid and I'd love to work with one single corporate cash buyer that is able to close  on several deals a month.

My local REI buddy called today.  

Nobody ever went broke over a duplex, I know this now,  but I have to admit I had some serious doubts about this when I started 16 years ago, I bought every course I could find, already on CD's, this was post cassette tapes lol, and I paid RichDad Education for a one year coaching program (turned out my coach was a girl in a call center without any actual experience). 

Unfortunately, we get too many calls from clients that got the run around, poor communication and service and/or were the victims of a "bait and switch". 

The thing that got me considering this model and actually scaling it was a call I got from a friend.

I recently came across a website called RentToRetirement.com, which helps buyers purchase turnkey investment properties out of state.I was wondering if anyone here has used this site to buy a property.

There are no upfront costs so why not establish a relationship with someone who actively represents real estate investors and move forward with vetting your ideas.Best.

So a majority of the ownership groups would want to sell, plus since they are more sophisticated owners usually would sell through a broker to get max price and not sell privately.
