Granted this post is all about assuming if the seller would do seller financing.

Granted I have never had the 72 item list asking me to raise headroom, but I usually carry a couple thousand dollars in a line item for inspection issues.

Granted, there's tons of issues off-market too but to me that stands out as the biggest problem with MLS. 

Granted I want to do investing but it does not hurt to try and make some great connections/sales working as an agent. 

You should watch Grant Cardone's YouTube video, "The Worst Investment You'll Ever Make."

While I will grant you that some areas will appreciate faster than others... the vast majority of our properties are C class blue collar rentals.  

Usually, only through the intervention of government in the form of low-income property improvement grants and rental subsidies can marginal properties in marginal areas be made profitable.

How was Grant's talk?

@Corey Grant I've been there and completely understand!

.$120,000 - $140,000 ARV'sTrying to pick up for $50,000 each.Decent condition and might need $20,000 cosmetic.Rent $1,500 - $1,700.Granted, I have the luxury of market knowledge, cash to close, remote workers and solid lists.Definitely not falling of tree's like 10+ years ago but still plenty of deals to be had.$1m in cash and someone that is willing to work the market hard for 2-3 years can retire off the income if investing in the Midwest.Just my opinion 🙏
