Even worse, investors generate multiple transactions but the pricing / costs seem to be not better than the once in a lifetime house/ homebuyer.The guy in this $880K flip, got $130K out of the deal ......but the transaction and financing costs were almost as much.This makes me think 2 things:1.

Time to make calls and find leads and linking those leads to together with buyers building relationships etc ... but BUT it can be done and it is well worth it man

Curious to get some feedback.If you got you a very hot, very motivated, high equity seller lead appointment that wasn't on market or on anyone elses radar, with a high potential for great margins....

for example lead paint inspections/disclosures...).I would also recommend networking with others who have also recently bought their first or second rental property, getting together with such folks for coffee to mutually support each other.

My main reason for considering commercial is because 1) the duplex and triplex and even 4plex market in my area is very competitive and it drives purchasing prices too high. 2) I guess I’m kind of a pretty ambitious guy and my wife has followed my lead and trusted my guidance and I want to help our growing family (2 kids and 1 on the way) meet our financial goals as fast as I can!

The answer becomes more SFRs, but this can instead of solving the issue, exacerbate it, leading to so-so communication.Thus, I think that most TK guys and gals are good people who try, but there are structural deficiencies that are almost impossible to overcome within the model itself.As you know, when we buy apartments, property management, contractor budgets, and pay roll are all included into the model.

It guess I've stumbled onto something with my marketing reach, because I am getting leads lately from small towns about 30-40 minutes outside the city -- places like Wallis and Cleveland and so forth.  

I have a few leads in the St.

Are you referring to getting leads to flip?

I have had 3 specific investor CRM's referred to me for keeping contact with leads as they come in:REI BlackbookInvestor CarrotLead PropellerI'm curious if anyone has had experience with one or the other of these.
