There are a few highly rated HipCamp hosts in our area that have 'U-Pick' farms of produce and/or petting zoo type animals, and they've added a handful of RV sites to go along with it.  

Hello, I have purchased 4 different asset manager lists over the past two years, but three were ineffective with outdated information and many email bounce-backs or returned mail.The best list I found was at RealEstateTargetdotcom; I did a successful snail mail and email campaign, and picked up three new banks and an account with LPS.I also cross referenced names on the list to see who was attending or speaking at various REO conferences, and made efforts to meet asset managers in person.

My thinking is this leaves me with two paths: A) Best case is I pick up the foreclosure for $1M, immediately list it for sale at $1.6M or more and hopefully sell for a > $500K pretax profit. 

1) Don't fall into analysis paralysis, theres a ton of ways to invest in Real Estate, pick one and go.2) Take action.

The contractor didn't want to pick them - it was a 15 mile drive (in California traffic, this would take a lot of time).

They ended up stepping over dollars to pick up dimes. 

I have never heard of that.Maybe go in and manually block direct bookings so their software doesn't pick up on where this is coming from?

we used to pick up a couple a year at the tax lien auctions, but most were accessible if you had a skinny guy on staff that could get in. 

Hi Celso,The BRRRR Strategy is all about picking the right location and lender.

I recommend AirDNA subscription for picking and evaluating both markets and individual properties, a little pricy, but if you are taking the investing seriously and with a long-time horizon, definitely worth it in my opinion
