I've spoken with 4 property owners and the deals did not work out financially for me, 2022 I plan on being more consistent with my direct mail marketing campaign (Letters, cold calling and emails).

FAR more valuable than money  time@Jerryll Noorden Cold calling is a sport of consistency that WILL and ALWAYS leads to motivated sellers.

I own a multi-family unit near Mid-Town  and had some challenges early on with tenants but in the last 2 years I have adjusted my process with each room being rented on average 8 months per person; along with only marginal changes for utilities and fixed internet and cable cost no matter how much they use those services.With rents rising at the pace they are now and consistent low inventory this will be more of an option for qualified renters in the future. 

Either find the deals yourself, or connect with someone who has a consistent stream of deals and focus your energy deciphering which one you should jump on.If you are finding your own deals, drive around and find the best sub markets that have numerous BRRRR potential properties.

Getting the work done consistently is almost impossible unless you go through one of the larger property management companies.

Tough to find houses in my price range, but I'm looking consistently!

You need to be consistently taking massive action everyday. 

I went into it knowing there was sweat equity and i was ready to exploit it.The thing about Real Estate is most people aren't hitting home runs by waiting for the perfect pitch and then swinging for the fences...they are hitting home runs by taking what the pitcher gives them and then consistently hitting singles/doubles and then occasionally they hit one out of the park (as is this example)***Anyways,We noticed this was a very large 2 bedroom home in a nice location.

I feed so hopeless right now. 

I'm being told consistently to wait until the market drops by family and friends.
