You should also study up on what the homes that sold have in them (your quality level of finishes should match or exceed your competitors if you want top dollar).

Don't just focus on talking to people that might have a house for sale right now, but instead tell everyone that you interact with what you are looking for so when they come across a property that matches your criteria they will think of you.

As far as what most of them do - they set up a simple filter based on the info that you gave them, then you look and find houses that you like within the filtered range, contact them and let them know you want to see it, then they show you the house (based on their schedule around other clients).

Which means that there are many times more owner occupant buyers than investor buyers and owner occupants buy based on comps, whereas investors buy based on cash flow. 

@Peter Woernerthe other issue is that investors are coming in now based on BP advice circa 2016 =(

Whether you are sacrificing your comfort to house hack, money for a downpayment to cash-flow more, or one of the wealth generators based on the market itself; there is no one-size-fits-all perfect investment.

You can't slam a mentorship just based on their price.

Unless it is a property you intend to live at and are not looking for a return, then base your decision on what the numbers tell you.

We did a light remodel and posted it for sale based on what other comps sold quickly for in 2023.Very little interest so we've continually lowered the price.
