Additionally, buying in bulk can lead to discounts, which helps in reducing overall costs.

Hey Devon,I would recommend sticking to a specific zip code or pocket of homes and looking for a fix n flip.I work with many investors that have tighter margins on their fix n flips due to subbing out much of the work throughout the process.

I have watched investors buy properties at great discounts and still lose money because they could not operate the project.

Appliance manufacturers are seeking cost efficiency to preserve margins, thus parts are not lasting as long.

The upfront costs, lease risk, and thin margins can make it a tougher starting point, especially in today’s market.

.- IMO, you'll have to add a discount to nearby, comparable properties that aren't on the busy road to entice guests and provide an appropriate value; therefore, you should pay a discounted value for the property.- Provide white noise machines, box fans, and earplugs in each bedroom.- Are any of the bedrooms on the roadside of the house? 

I know for sure that getting financing for investment(s) will put stress on my credit rating, so I want to create as much margin ahead of time so I can get the best possible loan terms.

That’s a solid point — buying with deeper discounts definitely adds a layer of protection in this market.

Will note on the discount.
