I'd love to hear some opinions, especially from realtors who walk staged and unstaged houses with clients regularly or flippers/sellers who have tried this method.

If you meet individually you're starting to build your own network, and you can keep in touch regularly with the people that resonate with you.

Is not a panacea  - you still need regular insurance, umbrella, still need to maintain the property, be careful in hiring, be extra careful in leasing, etc.

With that offer and hacking, I would basically be breaking even.

The HOA fees destroy ability to break even, let alone cashflow!

It breaks down nearly every possible expense you might have in a flip in a way that's easy for someone new to the business to understand.

Minor touch ups may be necessary but nothing deal breaking I would think.

A guy in my town built a 6 unit apartment building 2 years ago and put the shower head coming out of the ceiling like that, but then put a regular head on it.

It started with an ambitious goal, real estate investment with a purpose (see old post here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/61/topics/411...) and now, two years later, I am proud to say that there is a family living a little bit better, and I am above break even...
