That said, the number of times I get on a call with a BP lead and realize they have already thoroughly researched me, including my past deals and content, is incredibly high.This goes to show that the value you put out there matters.

After discussing their goals, we realized they would like to maximize the property's value while also including me in the process, given my background in general contracting.

What was nominally a 52k down payment turned into close to 100k--12k in closing costs, 12k in extra payments, and about 25k in labor to help me get it ready when I realized I couldn't get it all done by myself working evenings in a reasonable amount of time (plus I knew I couldn't do the egress windows myself). 

We (developer and all of us as consultants) were sued over this PE three years later, which I mostly believe is because they realized they had no 'proof' of the PE beyond the fact that we had shot holes in their AP until they acquiesced to PE.

What happens at the end of the lease if the owner realizes that they can just take the property back and do what you are doing? 

A new owner with more capital can easily come in and decrease vacancy rates and increase supply to realize a 2-3x revenue.

I realize many opportunities lately are going to be found in our MLS, Zillow, FB groups, wholesalers' distribution lists, etc.
