I have 35 days to identify a home to purchase due to 1031 exchange.

Second, I would recommend working with an agent as they will help you identify and find the right properties for your goals.Then I would set up my search criteria with the agent as well as in zillow or any other tool of choice and look every day. 20 min a day. practicing that muscle will allow you to better understand the market as well and get practice analyzing deals.Once you know the market better and what an average deal is like, then you can solve the financing problem. there are many ways to solve that problem.happy to chat more in person if you want, do not hesitate to reach out, connect and DM me.

Once you identify more than 4 you are basically required to buy them all. 2).

Plus every time they come out, its a flat rate service fee (~$65-75) each time they show up, regardless if they are returning to install the part they identified from the first visit.  

You seem to be going plenty hard.There are a few issues that I have identified.1.

Personally, I've been using housing data I get from Realtor/Zillow/FRED to identify the top markets with in the U.S. with a high Rent/Sale ratio AND a high Avg.

We identify locations that newbies may want to experience (parks, lakes, amusement) and can position the rental to pivot to STR if needed.

you could also search "casita" in the filters, they are sometimes labeled under that identifier.

I wanted to reach out to the community to see if you all have advise on identifying trustworthy wholesalers, any tactics you've used in communicating your buy box, putting in place systems, etc......

A good inspector can generally identify what has been replaced and what may need to be done.
