In other word, if seller doesn't want to pay buyer agent and the offer is coming using FHA/VA loan, it would be automatically rejected by seller.What a mess....

4) Would there ever be a benefit to approaching the current owner and offering to buy the property from them, and pay their property tax, which would remove it from the tax sale?

After switching to Hostaway, I definitely made the best decision for me with the great features and support they offer.

He offers a 90 day money back guarantee so long as you submit at least 1 note each month.  

So if my offer is higher than other offers you would reject it?

There are a lot more private lenders offering bank competitive rates and terms for investment properties then there used to be!  

Also be mindful of the fact property management is generally viewed as a loss leader in the industry and many make the mistake of self managing through employees  which costs more than hiring a 3rd party firm that has scale to offer mroe back office support, technology, in-house maintenance staff etc.

Drawing from your professional experiences, I am keen to understand how you typically support investors who encounter similar challenges.I appreciate any guidance and expertise you may offer in this regard.Thank you for your consideration.Warm regards,Tim Christian

However, we now believe that exploring less competitive markets could potentially offer greater value for our investment.Would appreciate any mentorship or recommendations on websites to identify areas with the highest returns nationwide for multi-unit properties.

Lots of great meetups here as well if you'd like to come out in person and meet many of the top players in person.
