@Jake MaughanIf you have a captive seller here, you might talk to a few agents and just get it listed.  

I've always been a fan of direct mail and offering a home seller's guide as a lead generation magnet. 

I'm not a big fan of Watermark, they seem to inventory pretty low end assets and don't seem to want to negotiate very far. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/70/topics/143081-successes-with-fci

Besides, I'm a big fan on buy and hold (at least for a 5-7 year period). 

hello fellow BP fans,I am about to close on my first Turnkey rental.

I am not a real fan of smaller condos .

I am not a big fan of buying in a rising market because then you're either trying to flip as rapidly as possible in order to minimize the chance of missing the top of the market, or you're holding for a moderate period of time and trying to time things.

@Nick Van Dyk For sure, I'm a big fan of knocking on the neighbour's door and hearing what they know.

In just a couple days, I've listened to several of them and have found myself captivated.
