Buyers are operating from a center of delayed gratification; delaying there purchase action for the thought of a future discount.

Although most small towns are slowly dying, if you buy correctly (heavy discounts) and you provide a decent property to your tenants, you will develop a large portfolio of rentals that cashflow really we 2% all day long, and will have some equity.  

Christopher has done some double dipping on discounts over other costs, banging the seller twice.None of this is a basis at an offer, that 70% BS is for two closings and holding costs, wholesalers don't hold the property!!!!

Lots of discounts due to the national presence.  

I like a rent discount if paid by the first, otherwise standard rent, can be modest like $508.

You could always try giving a discount to returning guests who have left reviews, but usually immediate reward works the best.

You may be able to create cheap electricity and sell it to your tenants at discounted (but still profitable) rate.If your tenants use electricity, then you have an opportunity to make additional income - $100K - sure - easy.Hope that helps.

Seller is not motivated to sell at discount for now .  

Offer discounts or incentives for referrals that lead to a lease signing.Hire a property management company: If you don't have the time or resources to market your rental listing, consider hiring a local property management company to do it for you.

Here's one that mentions a discount code (not sure if it's still available): https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/688293-simplisafe-promo-code
