@Unique Washington  Yes, I get asked a lot if I do this kind of in the home flipping training in other areas. 

That being said, I love the idea of them and still think they could make an interesting value add to a portfolio, especially if combined with some sort of short-term/unique/corporate/vacation rental aspect.

Each partner and deal is unique, so is the arrangement.One example, there's a realtor in our area doing pre-foreclosure deals.

Unless you have a very unique situation, you are unlikely to recoup the costs of adding another bathroom.

Your address is unique since it’s in a special district called “Predominance of the block”( 606) district”.

CenterPoint is unique because they're a utility company as opposed to some 3rd party residential warranty company such as American Home Shield. 

The San Pedro deal was unique due to our negotiating the sellers to leave $17,500 in escrow for the buyer to pay the tenants for relocation, needless to say they did not hesitate to leave, but instead of taking my advice and buying property they chose to lease in a higher rental market.

Occasionally we get other deals in different regions of WI from our BBB ad.  

To verify the defendant in the eviction lawsuit was the same person as my applicant, through searching online I found a list of properties associated with the plaintiff  (real unique name).
