Personally, I did over 250+ transactions (including STR, MF, SFH, LTR, RRs, Corporate leasing, Acquistions/Sales, Value-Adds, etc.) on and off market in 2023-to-date in our area.

Building a genuine relationship.How did you add value to the deal?

if you can build at 50% of after value I'd hire you and I build the cheapest of anyone I know in our market and minimum rates. there's 3 builders that build at our rate. only place I can get us to 50% equity is in miami florida and that is new construction that is selling at $1000 per square foot and up and high density 300+ unit underwriting with incredible economies of scale. columbus has lower construction costs but lower exit. we focus on urban core. my best suggestion is look at urban not suburban for higher valuations. you can't control what new construction appraises at so do it in less risky areas. 

How did you add value to the deal?

I don't think most of the properties get anywhere near the market value though.

Get an experienced agent and price it a bit below market value to sell fast.If you are not in a distress situation, there's no reason to sell to a wholesaler.

Take into account elements like the rental market dynamics, property condition, location, and potential for value-adding options.Select the house hacking strategy that will work best for you.

Lenders are very cautious with this market considering its values.

Hi all, I'm looking at some single family properties in the area and there is one for sale that says the current tenants are paying $500 below market value.

A lot of real estate right now does not cashflow or meet the 1% rule, so unless you buy at 70% ARV (or below) and add value, you are probably not cash-flowing at all.
