This is the time you can set up your shop.Also check Loopnet.com to see if $20/sqft is competitive.  

You dont see many stories posted here on BP of "I was house flipper fool and lost my a$$"  On here like those shows its the buy more more more its a competition thing.

Lots of showings, but no offers, means it's priced low enough to seem competitive but the buyers are disappointed for some reason.  

Now, if your area is different and there is little competition for distressed property, then perhaps all of them are selling at a discount.  

@Chuck Raderstorf Not sure what your situation is and in case Rodney doesn't answer you, but here are few things to think about.  1) the list of preferred funding sources and network of lenders will be provided to either everyone who attends the 3 day course, meaning hundreds of people or more or it will provided to those want to spend $20K to $70K, so you'd be in competition with a lot of others. 2) No experienced private lender, that you don't know, will lend to an inexperienced rehabber, unless they (the Lenders) are total idiots.  3) It is likely that you will end up using hard money if you don't have your own funds or access to some private money.  4)  I'm certain there are hard money lenders in your area available via the web or your local REIA.   

When I started I looked but the guys I could find were not as interested in training the competition as I had hopped. 

This is due to less competition, low inventory / tenant demand for a finished product in these areas.  

The fees tend to be $700.00 to $1,200.00 on the west coast and $1,200.00 to $1,800.00 on the east coast where there is less competition. 

. - be better than your competition - put up GREAT photos (spend $ for professional ones it's worth it!)

However, with the competition popping up in my market (Cincinnati ohio/northern ky).
