The management is always annoyed at "a difficult one" and glad to be rid of them.Can you imagine working as an assistant in a place like this and knocking on a door and going in to find the little old lady inside on the floor, begging you not to tell the management that her ankle is broken, insisting that she can just use a crutch to get around, and she'll pay you to keep quiet, she has money where no one knows about it...My wife is a workaholic, and that is the only job she ever just up and quit in her life.

You could also drive around the neighborhood, look for someone with a nice new fence, knock on the door and tell them their fence looks great, then ask who built it for them.Just some thoughts about fences...Like Kyle J said, usually here in California the fence is on the property line, and costs are to be shared. 

Aside from the fact that the IRS would love you to think they can knock on your door any moment.  

It is always great when people are honest and share the hard knocks that investing sometimes deals you. 

The 2br knocks significant value off for both purchase and rent, so if all your comps are for 3br, they’re not legit comps. 

Alternatively you can go the grassroots method and knock on neighboring homes and tell them about the house, pics inside, and ask them to share it with their friends and family looking to buy in the area.

I've heard of "knocking it down and rebuilding with permits," but that seems counterproductive.

My motives are all in the right place and ive been getting amazing feedback from investors of all magnitudes and i am ready to knock my first deal out the park.

I personally don't understand why a seller would take a discounted rate so a wholesaler could make a profit when the market is so hot.I am not saying the next part as a knock... if your work ethic is second to none, then you should leverage your electrical experience and get your side hustle going to build up cash. 

A guy knocked on the door and made an offer a few days later.
