If you can't find that perfect lender, then you might have to scrape together 10-20% of the purchase price (but not the rehab price).

@David Ferrette those sound perfect.

That said, don't do something silly, but don't try to have the perfect plan before you start.

I deal with clients all the time and they think its suppose to perfect from a half inch away and everything is suppose to be flawless. 

You’re losing more money by NOT doing deals than you would by not picking the “perfect market”.You’re so close to being back in the game.

Whereas other investors couldn't justify rehabbing, and developers focused on bigger deals, it was a perfect match for this auto shop Owner to expand on what he already had.

Carpets is a perfect example, why would you have carpets in a rental.

First being it perfectly priced and another buyer stated the property is smaller than than she anticipated.

I plan to find the perfect balance between being tactful and treading carefully and being polite yet assertive.

I'm perfectly fine with using data like this but I'd really like to understand and be able to gather and analyze markets myself but really have no concept yet of how to do that.Any help/advice or a pointer to the right direction is appreciated. :)
