Are MLS Deals Gone in Small Town America...?

[Brandon Sturgill]

So, the inevitable is coming true in small town America and houses are staying on MLS for less days before going to retail buyers...and the deals on MLS are generally few and far between. I just implemented my direct mail and other strategies for targeting motivated sellers, but it will be a while before my efforts bare fruit...

In the meantime, I continue to look at houses on MLS, but my offers are way off fair market and way-way off ARV. I am confident in my offer formula, but am becoming more reluctant to submit offers through my realtor. Anyone else experiencing the same issues?...
