That's a long shot but I wanted to ask. 

Hello BP, I’d like to start and buy my first investment this year, but so far every method I explore is shot down somewhere in the process (usually financing) and was hoping to see some outside perspectives.For context, I’m fresh out of college, have worked off the books until starting a Blacktop sealcoating and striping company with my brother in 2022.

For your viewing pleasure, I’ve included a snap shot of my “5-minute analysis” process on properties in our Logan Square farm area.

I am still relatively new even for the Philly market but getting myself ready so I can take a shot soon. 

Had a PM get rushed by squatters at one, have had some properties get shot up.

But, the home run shot, or going bigger in a single deal is also valid.

The landlord wants to give it a shot, and wait because he says its very hard and costly to get your money back from someone and would end up likely not getting it...

Let's say they're selling a couch - have a friend message them asking where to buy the couch - you could get the tenants' address that way too - it's a long-shot but would be worth a try if the USPS method doesn't work.

I'm going to give that a shot and also see how listing on Zillow goes.  

I know of 1 inch risers that lift the blower up to prevent the gravel from being shot up.
