I saw the same property advertised on CL for around 27K less.3. some local yokel that put a property under contract (MLS listed) and was almost out of time and needed to "sell" it fast.The list goes on.

Since I can not advertise the site (BP policy non-pro) where is a neutral location in cyberspace to meet?

Maybe section 8 advertising channels might help?

If bandit signs were really working as a deal source, can you hit those areas with bill boards or other paid for signage advertising?

. :  ) I do all my own bookings on VRBO and that keeps my condos 88-90% occupied every year so I don't advertise anywhere else.I hire out housekeeping and maintenance. 

We only advertise our properties online, so every applicant has internet access.

These day you can do advertising, screening, collecting rent online. 

Understand that private money is from individuals who are not in the business of lending, therefore they can't advertise as that puts them in business, soliciting loans and makes them a hard money lender.

And to conservatively get an extra $50 /100 a month Per unit  by doing minimum repairs and maybe just some basic advertising  .
