Because of this, I'm not sure if filtering my search to pool homes is worth it in the long run.

@Kevin KellyI would run your numbers through the rental property calculator under the tools tab on this website. 

We are trying to think of some ways to target people who need to sell, but don't have the obvious characteristics that most investors target (run down exteriors, pre-foreclosures, etc). 

Because of this, I'm not sure if filtering my search to pool homes is worth it in the long run.

When things went "pop" south of the 49th and we watched them slide off the tracks, there was an about face in Ottawa (a slow one, but it did finally happen) and regulators for residential real estate financing started to reverse course.It is still easier to borrow to buy real estate than it was in the 80s and the unprecedented run of low - almost no - interest rates has helped fuel the continued rise of several real estate markets in the country which should have gone "pop" themselves some years ago.

If you run into any single families or duplex's while wholesaling I will be very interested.

- you make 50% of the net profit - that is net less advertising or expensive - so if the expenses are $1,000 you would make $9,500.00 and I would make the same.The expenses are usually the cost of advertising the property for sale.So............... it you are ready to begin creating leads - this is what I suggest you do ---Farm neighborhoods to look for FSBO's, send me as many expired listings as you can in the neighborhoods where we are going to invest, Go to housing court 2-3 times a week to listen to the cases and meet landlords after their case is called, run some ads in the local papers (I will design the ad for you), get me a list of all the local auctioneers in the community, put flyers on super market bulletin boards, ask 5 people a day if they know of anyone interested in selling their real estate.Look for commercial and business real estate for sale - get me all that information and we'll make a call to get information and make them an offer (you present the offer for us)Later in the "Mentor - Apprentice relationship we will advertise on radio.Any questions?

There are shacks with no running water, on posts, listed for 100 k and they're selling!
