From what I see there are two separate issues that may or may not be solved concurrently.

Most sellers are not looking for a chunk of cash they are looking to solve a problem.If I was starting today I would be going directly to these owners who have listed their properties and have conversations.

He was trying to easily solve what he thought was a complex issue.

Jerome Powell itself.If he resign we solved 73% of the problem lol.

But the idea of solving the water problem in a way that generates cash flow intrigues me. 

Words are weapons, contrary opinions and words cause physical and mental abuse that should be responded to with force, need authority to step in to solve problems, everyone needs protection, trust emotions over reason, avoid bad experiences at all costs, the world is black and white battle between good people and evil people (there is no middle ground), etc.

If you go here and put in that address what it shows as a  clue

I try to find out what problem they are trying address and attempt to solve it (and also follow the Helmsley approach).

The LL obviously never inspected the property and had ZERO clue about the status of the unit.... just collecting his check in Oregon and being oblivious.

What will separate you from the others is: active listening; problem solving skills; consistent follow-up; ability to add value to the prospective seller.4.
