I feel like I would be better off offering 200$ discount to a handyman type, as opposed to 170/month to a management company who will bill out everything that goes wrong.

Anyway, YOUR Offer should aim to get you that 30%+ discount you'll want/need whether you're Flipping or BRRRRing!

Sears has a outlet with deeply discounted appliances that have a scratch and set in a place you cannot see.

Did you get it at a good discount and then do a value add?  

I think all you need is a title company to close your transactions - no don't need an account at this time - most title companies have lawyers to close your transactions -You should make sure that you buy real estate at a giant discount - Understand the management process - learn how to be a good landlord - a tenant is a customer - the tenant is the person who will pay for your mortgage - treat them well.Find discounted real estate from landlords who find themselves in rent court -Start to deal directly with owners - I don't think you should depend on agents selling retail properties - you need to go under-ground for great deals -Tax salesPublic AuctionsRun print ads and radio commercialsInternet - 5 weeks ago I created an internet site - I have received over 200 leads - have 70 offers out there and 15 ratified contracts - learn those systems and you will do well.Expired listings - go knock on some of those doors - an expired listing is  FAILURE of property to sell - I am sure the sellers are not happy - go find them and solve their problems.Direct mail to commercial properties owners - commercial buildings can be  great profit center - when you advertise for real estate - signs - internet or mailings always advertise - WANTED REAL ESTATE - houses - commercial and non-conforming properties - all cash -as is - no commission.

Due to this though, I believe a lot of fix and flippers who are not as well experienced are not as profitable or may not be profitable because bank owned and lower priced assets are not as heavily discounted 

hi from austin tx. so been hanging around here trying to figure out how i wanted to get started. well figured it out. i am selling my house, cashing it out, because i do not want to use it as a rental. bought another house that i will hack then turn it into a rental in a cpl years but in the mean time i am looking at additional properties in areas outside of austin even out of state.my goal is 10 properties before i retire, from my current job, in 6 years. i am looking especially in rural areas.

This also keeps you from having to go back to the utility to pay additional deposits or provide references - every time you lose a tenant!

I don't really know a lot of rehabbers in this market that's in over their head and willing to give up their property at a discount.

To get a really good discount on a property, what are some of the tactics you guys use to shave 5, 10, 20k off of the asking price?
