Would probably be better that I buy from a builder, I just find it less appealing buying at retail when I'm looking for cash flow...I'm spoiled from having a $1000+ cash flowing property already, so if I'm not hitting that number, it's not going to work for me.

Left me feeling like a basically have a retail/fulfillment person on my team so I'm a big fan and would recommend giving them a shot, especially if you're in a similar position as I was: Needing to furnish an STR quickly and cost-efficiently. 

By year end I will tackle a MF, value add with my son that would be sweet if we can swing the coop/tic (handling the finance challenges is the hurdle) so he ends up with a unit at below 50% of retail.  

Typically by the time it reaches the MLS, it is listed at retail value, and you're not going to get a screaming deal, although there are those diamonds in the rough and my team frequently does "fixer" deals off the MLS.
