I want instant equity, NOW!

Of course every market is different and some markets may be more saturated than others.Another thing to consider is that like Dev mentioned, a lot of people talk about something but very few actually do it as a system. ie a lot of people try something for a short while, don't get immediate results, and give up.A lot of the leads have to be cultivated for a while and you don't get instant gratification.

I picked up a 3/1 SFH in Columbus, OH in October '21 for $82k that had a den that just needed a closet to become an instant 4/1.

With a 2 unit, you don't have to meet the self-sufficiency test and you can add value through the 203k loan to have instant equity!

I just used Obie (obierisk.com) for my latest rental, they're licensed in all 50 states and offer instant quotes online.

They have been really great to work with, and I think you can get an instant quote on their website.

There are multiple options available for screening packages; tenant involvement/no tenant involvement, instant reports, hand-compiled reports, and even income verification.You can find further information by going to Tenant Screening under the Tools tab.Best of luck to you!

Again, just seems odd to continue in the SFR game when there's much bigger paydays to be had given your position.

They returned my initial call nearly instantly, asked me what I was looking for, and tailored suggestions to my requests.  

Do just thirty one like that and you're an millionaire JUST FROM THE INSTANT EQUITY.
