I liked the initial cushion of being able to walk cheaply from the purchaser without executing my option for whatever reason down the road but with all of the rules its somewhat ridiculous.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Taxes are ridiculous and the young people are moving away.

People simply are not willing to listen no matter how evident the evidence of SEO and credibility far outperforming ANY OTHER LEAD gen system... yet people cling to those friggin RIDICULOUS methods!

The numbers airbnb's can generate in terms of profit are absolutely ridiculous and way more profitable from what I have seen!

1% EMD is standard, and plenty, for an off-market deal. 15% is RIDICULOUS.

First, rates are ridiculously low for personal homes right now so great time to buy a personal home.

Long story short, my 2023 year EXPLODED with some out-of-state investment properties...including 2 STR properties that closed literally on the same day (that was fun and I could probably write a book about the ridiculous situations I got myself into...and then out of while trying to set things up, lol). 

We are currently team buy and hold....my family gives us a hard time that we should do a TV show - RENT THIS HOUSE....then maybe we could see how they pull some of those ridiculous remodeling numbers :)

13K is ridiculous for a standard bath.
