I saw your profile. 400 rental units?

Hey Edric Lattimor - here are a couple great articles here on BiggerPockets: - The Basics Of Wholesaling For Beginner Real Estate Investors- Wholesaling Real Estate Step by StepAlso, a quick tip: adding a picture to your profile will help you connect with others quicker and deeper!

These things would be necessary to fit the renter profile that we are targeting.The 2% rule is wishful thinking in my market, which is a college town, and a 1.5% gross is more fitting.

I am trying to update my profile so I can add an image and I keep getting this response.

So for example I can take a profile of a highly motivated seller say a divorcee-- maybe I can find a stat that shows me say a divorce rate for a specific city-- If its high then I could target that area for my marketing however, I want to find the homes in the bread and butter areas of that town.

After 5 years and tens of thousands of blog and BP posts about my properties and my results, this is literally the first time anyone has questioned my honesty.Not that I have anything to prove, but my ego won't let me ignore your post.Here is proof of the sale at the price I indicated:http://www.coldwellbankeronline.com/property/details/2913943/MLS-1286073/305-S-Eastmoor-Ave-Brookfield-WI-53005.aspxThe house is probably 5 minutes from where you live (assuming your profile is accurate)...must be mind boggling, huh?

Also, you should consider fully updating your profile and adding a picture...it really helps people as they discuss and interact with you.

Perhaps you can take a look at what I do and see if it would work for you, may help you out in your problem of the zillion offers mess.What I do know is that your problem of being in a crowded market will likely not get better and going after a different property profile like you mentioned will not remove you from the very same problem, in fact, it could get worse.

Oh - and be sure to put up a profile picture when you get a moment.

Conversely, if you didn't have much flexibility outside the single investment, you may want to lock the debt up longer and improve your cashflow profile.
