I am a nurse/travel nurse and have been around a lot of travel nurses and see this situation frequently.

I would rather be able to physically see my properties and check on them frequently and have more control over them. 

I actually frequently go there with the family in the summer. 

I watched the showings and checked in with the agent frequently, they weren't getting serious interest in the first few days it was on the market.

In the past 3 years, I frequently have investors who is interested in this building and asking the same question, "How much will you sell this building?".

I frequently see investors get rigid and want too high a cap rate with the starting 45 day ID period for 1031 then at last second they panic and have to get in something.

Insurance in several areas are costly possibly due to frequent fire incidents.  

Some were wholesalers that we've been in contact with before they started using Investor Lift, some are outfits that we found through browsing the available properties on the platform.I've thought about joining as well as we'll wholesale deals that don't meet our investment criteria from time to time... as an agent though I lean towards buying personally, assigning directly to a client, or listing more frequently than wholesaling, so I'm just not doing enough wholesaling volume to justify the $479/mo price tag.

They post frequently and will be happy to assist.  

Generally it should be based more around your skill set, abilities, risk tolerance and time but in a vacuum the BRRRR Method really checks the most boxes - since it recycles the same capital over and over (like flips) while building ongoing wealth and cash flow (like holds).David Greene does a great breakdown on this in the opening chapters of the BRRRR Book
