Tenants in place at purchase were a nightmare but after the turnover our new building attracted a flood of young professionals.  

I'm starting to believe it will be the opposite. is there anything else I could/should be doing to attract sellers?

What about wholesaling is so attractive to you vs. other investment methods? 

@David Faulkner  think about all those that post on BP that spend 3 to 5k per month on yellow letters.. we all have some over head.. they spend it to attract distressed sellers..

The job and population strength of the market especially in Dallas has and continues to be impressive creating a healthy demand for apartments and rental price increases.We currently have an attractive deal in the DFW area more than happy to share w/you.  

I live in Royal Oak and would love to buy there, but the market's too hot in this area and price vs cashflow isn't attractive to me. 

Even if you've done all the math correctly, making $250/month on $70,000 of equity isn't a very attractive deal.

I don't use them anymore though because tile looks better and attracts a better class of tenant.

People will be attracted to not only the property, but also to you as a landlord.

Our community is becoming more and more attractive to "suitcase entrepreneur" types so the jobs issue isn't quite as important as it is other places.
