When they started screwing with us last week about appraisals and then having to give them an ‘after reno’ price for the house when they had no idea what we were doing the house to increase its value, I did mention to the partners I thought we’d been scammed.

Sell the house you are in now and take that money tax free (if you've lived in it for 2 out of the last 5 years.2.

It is a HUGE bummer as an agent to write up an offer to go to a junk property (happened to me last week) to end up pulling out.

From what I hear Chris say is that there has been a very big shortage of notes to purchase at least for the last few years that could be changing now..

While home prices have cooled slightly from their peak, affordability remains a significant barrier.According to the National Association of Realtors, homes in the U.S. spent an average of 36 days on the market in January 2025, a slight increase from last year but still well below historical norms.

Hey @Aaron Bard, I met a bunch of them at the BP conference last year, they are legit.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Also slower than last month in central coastal Florida, like @Anand S., but this is a slower season, with kids back in school and hurricane season still “on.” 

I was searching for a PPR Review within the last year and I think the most current one I could find was from 3 or 4 years ago.
