I must admit that your earlier comment on the post is the common perception of the group.

My thinking is if its that hammered and the sellers perception is they have no choices but me..... well that will be a great negotiation!

These investors are more highly correlated with more sophisticated money and are unlikely to invest in projects like vacation rentals.  

@Nick NoonOur perception is always colored so heavily by where we live. 

It depends on the sophistication of the investor involved.

I doubt many people in California were looking to invest out of state back then because the popular perception was that buying for appreciation in California was a no-brainer.

Individuals should always do their own due diligence, but I want work with platforms that have a sophisticated and responsive platform, along with a viable/proven track record. 

I recently saw on the forum a few people asking around about Ohio Cashflow..So-- I just thought I would share with you our UK investor, Mark's perception of Ohio Cashflow and his experience with us thus far :)Click Here to watch a video about Mark's journey in turnkey real estate investing with Ohio Cashflow.Thanks and please feel free to reach out if I can be of any assistance.Hope you all have a great day!

Here it is:Last week I called up a family friend who has been working in real estate for decades... he's an agent, owns his own construction company, and is getting old :)I wouldn't call him a sophisticated investor, but he has the skills I lack and I think we're very complementary.

The way you become a sophisticated investor is that you keep reaching for greater success.
