Few cars because people can't afford them.

At least it's off my "to-do" list.I just had an offer accepted on a 3-note portfolio, and I have a seller literally begging me for an offer on another note.I had a very productive dinner with the SEVP/CCO of a local bank, which I am certain will lead to something good.Finally, I had 2 family members who have done deals with me in the past approach me with some more money they "found."
