Rental rates are increasing steadily and I could see this market end up being the top performing market in the country when 2016 comes to a close.

To be exact, $5,000,000 in loan transactions a year.There might be a potential market for a middle man that would allow people that do not $5,000,000 a year to get some of the data.For example, many investors would love to find non performing loans in only one zip code.

I've bought through auction.com for trustee sales in NC, and on some property had no opportunity to perform property inspections or 'complete' due diligence like you would on an MLS listed property.

My goal on this property is to get it back to it's performance and rent it out at FMR (which I don't know... $225-275/room per student)Here are some of the financials - Ask: 520kMonthly gross rent: $5000Property taxes: 7kInsurance: 2.5k (for me)Gas & electric: 3.5kWater: 1.5kRents should be at least $6400/month or $7200 depending, (possibly higher?) 

Now we're looking to get a third, though it's different (niche and area).

Only about a third of it is in the bank and the rest is cash in hand.

The third is nice when you can get it, but there's a lot of luck involved so don't build your investment strategy around it.

I give his company a few thousand dollars a month after 4 to 6 months,  he then takes  that money  and uses it to  get a line of credit they also pay 7% on my money I am paying them and then something also about a couple years down the road  they complete some sort of deal that frees up another 20% so in essence I'm getting 10% return on my money a year and I'm getting a huge line of credit that I can use to buy good  performing  real estate.

You can work on the assumption that you can continue to perform at the same level.
