My business model has always been rural property within an hours commute of an urban area so am well versed in farmers fields.

Goal: Force appreciation up then delayed financing.Comps; mill town with many identical models.

putting into action the steps needed to go out and investigate a new market instead of just sitting back and talking about doing something and not taking action  2. getting a good grasp of the layout, neighborhoods, and demographics of the market  3. meet, interact with, and learn about the business model of many of the active members of REI in Memphis that I have met on BP. 

That model will be changing once I get out of the military, but has really worked for us starting out.

But, the cost of the dues for each (both over $100/mo, ugh) is built into the pricing model when setting the rent.

I think it's likely a model that will morph into different shapes over the next couple of years.

for wholesaling, is there a sensible business model where I would be the financial backer and work with an existing realtor that knows the local wholesale market and have us share profit once the property is sold?

BUT, I am a Quantitative Finance major (investment management, risk management, securities evaluation), so I have knowledge in financial modelling, programming, time series analysis.

Which model is better suited for estimating the expenses of SFRs in hot markets (like Seattle) with purchase prices exceeding $350,000?
