But to be quite frank and Honest I am one of the few that work with holdovers or did work with holdovers my competition would not even bang on the door they just hired an eviction company and went for it.. now with the new rules thats changed of course.   

Regular concrete is very heavy and produces carbon leaving the building with a large carbon footprint.

Garage doors, even the cheap ones are heavy.

@Nathan Caffero  Deciding to invest in syndication may sound like you are simplifying your life, and in many ways you, are because you are having others do most of the heavy lifting. 

I see a couple that interest me, but likely won't be a competitive enough bidder. 

That increases the competition and not from other investors.Mitchell is right that you can't go wrong investing in the Nashville / Middle Tennessee area.

Flippers are complaining that there's too much competition and not enough cheap inventory.

It might be a little hard for the average joe to obtain it, but if they want to, they can figure  it out.My point being, is I don't see how one can gain a competitive advantage because most investors are going after the same type of list/categories (absentee, senior with equity, vacant, etc).

If their quality and cost remains competitive, you will continue bringing them constant work.
