I absolutely don't subscribe to the find the deal and the money will follow i think that is absolutely backwards. sure waste a lot of time and energy if you don't have the financing not only your own and get disappointed but the sellers and agents etc.. any agent worth  a darn will want to see your pre qualed. 

And don’t worry—I’m definitely not a Russian bot or a scammer living off energy drinks and Doritos in a basement in Estonia.

Yes, injecting a lot of out-of-state/foreign capital is great and certainly will help boost the economy.

However, health concerns forced me to step away from the hustle about 6 years ago.Fast forward to today, I'm officially retired and living in sunny California with a renewed sense of energy (and much better health!).

As everyone mentioned, using PriceLabs and dynamic pricing can really help boost those mid-week bookings.

They take more time, energy, stress and definitely more capital. 

Could long distance investing fit into your time and energy resources?

They want to use my time,energy, and expertise but do not want to show their capabilities or qualifications to me.I find it interesting that some buyers have a sense of being secret and arrogance about them.
