they must be accredited though.. there is that caveat . but that is changing with the jobs act.. but like realty shares ( Nav Athwal owner) I was his very first loan when crowdfunding was justs a twinkle in the investors eyes he has grown that to a monster company and 8 to 10% is routine for him to pay to his investors.. all auto mated and like clock work.. so that's kind of the competition when it comes to raising money and doing deals.. 10% for the risk of SFR rentals is just not that appetizing to most investors.. or they just do it themselves.

@Brian Varmuza I am sure the answer to this question will vary based on the area of the country, but in Connecticut where I am located and where there is a decent amount of competition for REOs it is definitely more common for offers to not include any inspection contingencies.

It's close to a university so there's good potential to get long-term renters in if the units are competitive with other student housing options (most students are paying $300-350 per bedroom in this market.)Units were all purchased in 2004 at $95k each.They're listed at $75k each now, and have been on the market for eight months.

Some even high than the Offer that I would offer...Is there a Way for me to Stand out above the Competitions Offer?

Im competitive, and need the lowest price and best connections for approved contractors, etc.

Then again, if you do flip there, all those other flippers are your competition.

Competition and cut throat nature?

The property is pretty much turnkey and I wasn't planning on doing a lot of renovations, but do plan to maintain it so that its competitive with other homes in the area.

You should search anywhere and everywhere to find an experienced loan officer that can provide you ample knowledge and a competitive rate.

Unfortunately, there is much competition doing that.
