They were selling on pro forma, but the market and the debt market have shifted, and it's aa lot harder to achieve higher pricing with lower rents.We've purchased over 2,000 units, and the simple answer to the question is that they are either mom and pops and run their businesses with ZERO KPIs, they do not want to risk losing tenants if they raise rents, and they don't treat their asset as a business.When you take over, it can be difficult to get rents to market if they are very suppressed.

It saves me money once I've spoken with someone and they've shown no motivation to not mail them again.I of course take them off my list but after 180 days listsource will no longer suppress those names.

Suppress the second list against the first list so you don't buy duplicates.
