If you at least have a decent amount time, then you can try to find low hanging fruit on FB Marketplace, Craigslist, cold calling land owners. 

AI can play a role in lead generatio and market analysis, but in the end you want an experienced human to be there on your side when stuff hits the fan. it would happen gradually , similar like travel agent, job agent, marketing agent , stock brokerage agent that the numbers are slowly reducing little by litle.we are moving to society where there would be trust more into machine than human, that's where the concept is moving on slowly and that's the very basic concept of AI. new generation want something that's more emotion-less, bias-less and much less costlier when possible.

People with acquisition machines capable of doing this can quickly wholesale their entire inventory.2.

A broken washing machine probably wouldn't trigger this, but perhaps a refrigerator would.

Seriously, the machine was 2 years and 2 months old!

PLUS, I want to identify some low hanging fruit for ways I can go ABOVE AND BEYOND the expected.

And for someone to get so much of the fruits of my labor seems like an injustice to myself. does that help paint the picture a bit better? 

Value add: We look for ways to add value to the property, such as a laundry room/machines (electronic, no cash), vending, adding water metering under our new leases, etc.If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

Don't expect it to ever be a hands off machine before many years of hard work and even then if you want to keep higher margins, a lot of the heavy lifting will have to be done by you. 

It seems like you might be ready for the next step and start rehabbing the lowest hanging fruit.
