Instead of thinking everyone is n00bs, think of everyone as a potential partnership or source of marketing so that you can help them with the things you are great at, renovation, etc and they can find you the deal that you keep trying to find.

If so, try starting with the median list price in your target market. 

If you want to network or ask specific questions about your local market, go to your local real estate forum and connect with investors from your area: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/86-local-real-estate-networking5.

You've jumped into a very competitive market!

Feel free to connect if interested in the PA market.

I'd gotten an on-market property under contract, but I found out it had massive foundation issues so I decided to assign it.

Too many sellers are asking for prices based on the park being at market rent for 100% occupancy.

I have some properties that are in good condition that if I could get an offer of 85-90% of market value without realtor fees I would happily take for a quick sale. 

I know a market that’s about to explode too.

I made a video response for you since this is a pretty involved question =)https://www.loom.com/share/a3736c9f04a14d96ac3392c66eec07dc?...
