Lenders are looking for fair market value.

I would consider them to be more of a consultancy than a turnkey provider, and as such I think they provide tremendous value.Of course I could do all the legwork from scratch - research markets and properties, find lenders, get home inspectors and insurance and property managers and so forth - but RTR has already done all that and has far more experience and knowledge than I do.

Exactly if its a hot deal cash just means you beat out the next guy who needs financing does not mean deep discount .. at least in markets were RE is sought after.

Granted, the real estate investing market was better in 2016 than it is now.Best of luck to you with whatever decision you make.

Which strategy below would you do in the Austin market? 

We purchased it off market, as-is, and as it was our personal home, we renovated over time.

Along with our partnership with GS Courtyard Homes this is a thriving and growing community, located in an amazing market.

: Experts at sourcing viable properties to market for sale. 

If you want to get into MTR or STR I have better markets to recommend.

I'm eager to grow my book of business in various markets and connect with active wholesalers.
