I tried one of the 5 the normal way with everything almost funded but it was a huge pain with the drawers (they deposited with checks for some reason so it took an additional few days to get the funds) and I had to deal with a super lame system to even get the drawers sent over.

Build your systems.

Some newer investors don't see that build date and potentially make a bad investment not realizing the amount of Cap Ex new systems cost.

Let me give you a bit of actual math and logic on doorknocking DMM, cold calling.DMM less than 3% open rateDoor knocking .. about 0.08% success rate.The key to success as a real estate investor is your ability to find motivated seller off-market leads.You are relying on systems that have a LESS than 3% success rate to become successful.Of course most of you are struggling.

First, you need to check with your brokerage if they even allow wholesaling when you are a licensed agent and you will need to pass through any hybrid marketing through their compliance system to make sure you are not violating any ethical or marketing laws in your state.

Likely no real effect in your situation, but really just depends on the volumetrics of your system.

Not sure where you live but it is something you can do out of state as well with the right systems in place.

We've gone through a few pricing software systems and currently really like Beyond Pricing.I came across this platform called Turnoverbnb and that connected me with a few cleaners who I then contracted off of the site to work for me personally.

They have great automated systems.

STR do require some more time to manage operationally, but with a few proactive systems set up on the front end (bnb friendly cleaner, automated messaging, multiple sets of turnover supplies so you are not stuck doing laundry during the busy workweek)  will make life much more easier!
