right now I'm using trials on Propwire, Propstream, and Deal Machine to get leads with cold calling.

We have to be soulless machines when looking at opportunities.

But have seen the holy grail with remote workers and digitizing everything so it’s hard to even consider going back to 50 people in an office lol Keeping it a lean machine 

For Winter 2024, more affordable Midwestern and Northeastern markets dominated the Top 20 list, with Ohio alone taking 5 slots.

If I had rented a machine and installed my own boot on this pipe I would probably have done it for less than $2500. 

Maybe that 2yr washing machines decides to die --- they really don't make them like they used ... 

Some owner/aggregators tried to throw more tech at the process; some owner/operators didn’t care because they were building machines to only eat equity.

That is what it all boils down to.If a lender asks what your plan is and you say there is a new slot machine in Vegas you want to try out, that probably isn't going to fly.If you say you found a 4 bed 2 bath built in 2015 that you can buy for $350,000 and after fix up of $40,000 will sell for $500,000 that gets the conversation started.

(both properties cash flow $1,300/month so they are money machines)My other option (not ideal) is to put 20% down come out of pocket about $15k, dump $10k into rehab and be $25k into a house that will appraise at for $80k.

SAVE a bunch of your income.. starting off being a high income earner .... all things that help you create this machine as fast as you did.Have you thought about using the cash flow your not touching to start paying off your highest interest rate loans first. you get them paid off its like owning another unit without having to buy one.. your pay day comes when these are all paid off.. !!
