Regarding vacancy periods, you'll need to understand, Days On Market (DOM) - or find a great PMC that understands and can explain it to you.

They could be your insight into off market deals.

Also, I don't know anything about the property but if it's under rented it may not be in market rent condition.

The house was on the market for a few weeks, I submitted my offer after the seller reduced the price to $24K.

If it was on the MLS or is in disrepair and no one else is bidding on the property (say an off market motivated seller) then yes sometimes.

What we found was only one other person contracted under $200 per square foot for clients and they also built within the city of columbus. the numbers have a much higher premium the closer you get to downtown. if you can't get the numbers to work my recommendation would be to get closer to downtown. we do build to rent development and single family home development and every line item is broken out. on the triples we have to build exterior staircases etc there are some things you can't really understand unless you build a lot. hope that helps but no one is going to build you for 110 a square foot. the lowest cost homes in our market at cost without a profit barely dip into 140 a square and we are in one of the cheapest construction markets and states in the country. 

I have quite a few off market Raytown deals available as well. happy to chat anytime

Thank you deeply 🙏The video is below.You have to remember, Diego started investing when the market had ideal conditions for investors.

Quote from @Wynn Williams: I have a friend/neighbor that wants to sell me his house below market value so he can move back into an apartment and travel.

If they tenant is $300 below market, that's costing you $3,600 a year.
