On Market Offers
Is it common to have to offer way under asking to make the numbers work or am I looking in the wrong market?
Please note that I'm mostly exercising my ability to run the numbers. So the example house may simply be a bad deal and I just don't recognize it yet.
For example there's a 3 bed 2 bath appears to rent for $950 according to Rentometer. I can't make the numbers work without offering 75k less than asking. I assume that's simply just an offensive offer at that point.

Most property on market is listed for retail, meaning not investor friendly. Do not be discouraged to make the offer that makes sense for you.
