Certainly regional differences has a dominating influence, and SFRs vs MFUs are in different galaxies. 

Yes but they aren't giving out the data (at least not for free)  the big players download MLS data and do their analysis that way. 

@Jeff L.I see the problem now.You don't have enough players in the picture.  

Update: We are still continuing to do well, and I just checked out our numbers versus other players in the area.

@Shane Lafleur the big player in our area is Myrtle Beach Home Buyers, owned by Jeremy and Adam. 

We have 4-8 units that we lease to a professional baseball team to house players. 

What you need to do is have a conversation with a good attorney, one time, who can tell you the parameters that you can work within and if you change the players in the next deal, all you need to do is check on how things changed.Considering how a local and good attorney can be an asset to investors must be missed for investors,, you get your program, strategy, contracts and all the stuff you want to do blessed once with legal water, then do the same thing multiple times using those documents.Don't tell your attorney I said that, it cuts into his fee structure.

The real players buy lots of houses, I'm looking to do 20+ this year and only that few because I'm having trouble finding ones that fit my numbers.Deals are harder to find than people to buy them right now. 

I thought of asking my ex football player friend to come with me. 

We are currently looking for referrals for trusted developers as well as trusted team players to work with such as lawyers, realtors as well as a bank appraiser.
