You may find yourself surprised how many folks around you are in the real estate world!

I have heard (not experienced) of folks who know they will be selling properties (especially commercial properties) not claim all their expenses on their return for a few years just so they can over state income.  

Typically folks in the 3.5% down bucket can't afford an extra 1.75% paid out of pocket, so it's rolled into the loan balance as a standard (but technically optional) thing.

Although I wouldn’t put it past some folks to study the video to get feedback on the staging, etc., or to gauge people’s interest in the property.

Most folks going out of state hit up the turnkey markets.

Like the folks above said, it's really hard to ballpark pricing for what needs to be deleaded because it really is on a house by house basis. 

I'd look for properties that have VA loans with folks who have been transferred away from Barksdale AFB , buy them off market, take over the loan and sell it on Lease Option to tenant buyers and get $10,000 down as an option fee and cash flow the property.
