We were able to get a better rate and keep more money out of the deal that method as it appraised for more after is was fixed up and performing.  

@Jaron Walling Im a sponge with learning and problem solving.

People refer to this as the BRRR method. 

My goal is to implement the BRRRR method in order to purchase a property every 6 months or so.

It would look good on your paper and would look "better" when you introduce yourself to future clients that you have million things to back up your real estate license, but certainly don't need it. with real estate, you have to have good communication skills, understanding situation and how to handle it(problem solving), know how to control your stress, learn how to take care of clients under stress, analyzing, CALCULATION (like mentioned on thousands of bp podcasts) and network well. 

You never know what situation a person is in, you may not be aware they would never sell a home through a Realtor, and you may not know they've had their home listed as a FSBO for the past two months with zero traction.On top of that, mailers & canvassing neighborhoods looking for the odd house out of the bunch are good options as well.I've personally never wholesaled before as I got my license when I first started out, but a wholesaler's method isn't much different than a Realtors at the end of the day.

does not mean this will also happen to you.So this is what you do.YOU need to do a cost/deal calculation for every method for lead generation you are considering for your market.Now you know how much money you need IF you were to do DMM, or IF you were to do bandit signs.Now this is DATA, so you are not gambling much here.Then factor in the effort it takes and the time it takes for a deal.Bandit signs may be almost free but it is illegal and a LOT of effort and work, and again risk for hefty fines.DMM simply is a bad idea... so figure out what is feasible and then you go for that!

Is the landlord responsible to solve their dispute?

Buy and hold real estate investors love to tell the stories about how they cleaned title and solved all sorts of problems.

This is my first investment and i can really use your guys expertise One effective method is to use the MLS and look at units that have leased in that area.
