I've been modeling out tons of deals over the past month and refining my model (I'm a newbie and have made a couple offers, but nothing that has stuck yet - fingers crossed on one I'm negotiating price with now). 

My wife and I were flipping our first house and learning how tough of a business that is for a newbie who "loves" the idea, but hasn't lived the model. 

I believe in the modeling off successful people.

We are extremely confident in the Airbnb model as it has worked for us in our current home for the past year (we own a 2-family home and list the 2nd apartment as a short-term rental).My wife and I both attended a Fortune Builders workshop last year and where inclined to invest in their Jumpstart program simply for the access to the contracts, forms, legal procedures and their back-end-office system.

Just some thoughts to see what others think as my business model has been long term passive wealth now for many years.

Opendoor counteroffered, which her customers rejected.Opendoor and her customers were $4,000 apart in price, said Tarpley, who said the company’s business model seems to leave little wiggle room for negotiating.

I'd bet a lot of money the model works exactly the same way throughout the entire Rust Belt.
