Also here's a local forum, you can select Omaha in the sub forum to dial it even further and start connecting some local players.

If you decide you want to get competing bids, get them once you've closed.

I know there are alot of investors out there and I will be competing with some successful big shots.

In my experience, you don't have to have a high-end facility in order to be competing in your market, the only necessity is demand.

I’m looking to find a knowledgeable, competent realtor to refer it to.

I was afraid that we would have to compete with the cash buyers, that just isn't the place we are in our lives, unfortunately.

@Austin NelsonBoth comments above are exactly how I compete and justify the escalation I am willing to offer up to.

They are also aimed to compete with economical inns, as the need for such rentals should be in the middle of the bell-shaped curve.

If like many investors you buy one house every year or two...it does cost you lots of time and money to be a part time agent who is not busy....you're paying for lots of things....CE classes, classes, office dues, MLS dues, key card dues, forms software, license fees, renewal fees, and on and on....and for plenty of people not really active enough to be competent.   

this going to be hard right now unless you have some cash to throw around...you're competing with people who have easy access to a LOT of capital.
