On another note; how do you get accurate data on flipping success rates when for a very vast array of them, it's not reported or substantiated anywhere?

It looks so wide and vast, I am overwhelmed and don't know where to start.

The vast majority are wrong.

If I gave you a list of 100 deals on a sheet of paper with just a few basic pieces of information you could apply the 1% rule and eliminate the vast majority of them and then only focus on a small number to consider evaluating further.

They are forced to be there so in a lot of instances you are trying to find the best candidate amongst the vast pool of bottom feeders who already have proven to be such.

in a foreclosure rescue situation it can be beneficial but those are the vast minority of sub to deals..

The vast majority of lawsuits against landlords involve wrongful eviction, security deposit disputes, and Fair Housing Violations.

And everyone's situation is vastly different when it comes to taking care of elderly parents..

A handful of DSCR lenders will cashout refi after 3 months seasoning, but the vast majority require 6 months.

So, in my market the VAST majority of homes an investor will invest in are "older".
