From what Ii understand brokers pass deals along to past client they know can close a deal and when it hits the market its almost like a graveyard...I think for myself I'd be better off closing a deal with a mom-n-pop type owner and hopefully seller-finance an older property with some value-add to force appreciation.I appreciate your response, do you have any feedback on this?

The owner closed and retired about 5 years ago.

For instance San Antonio may be easy, and San Diego may be close to impossible for certain things in certain committees.

I have worked closely with many investors, helping them find their ideal turnkey property.

If a buyer is offered a 2-1 buydown (starting at 5.25%, increasing to 6.25% and then to 7.25%) with all closing costs covered except for $3,000 (to be paid by the buyer) on new construction through the seller's preferred lender, and signs the purchase contract in April 2024, the house will be completed by the end of September 2024.

Currently about to remodel one side of our duplex from a 2 bed/2 bath to a 3 bed/2 bath with upgraded mini split ductless HVAC system.We've been doing real estate investing for over 10 years and I'm close to finishing developing a land lording class for local landlords to learn from my mistakes of 10 years and similar to the BP mentality ensure landlords are raising the bar to push the less than reputable landlords out as we feel our tenants deserve better! 

We're close to the finish line on an out of state BRRRR project; since most of the BRRRR chatter is from people that are thinking about it or people that have something to sell (looking at you, Ohio crew), I'd thought that I'd share a realistic perspective. 

ASK your housing authority how long the wait for the initial inspection will take.My experience has been that you need to monitor these tenants more closely than others.  

Also, has anyone self-closed before? 

Talk is talk, but valuations are based on closed sales not talk.
