I bought and read Homemade Home's book. I was wondering what information it would have that I did not already pick up from his videos or from wholesalers. He did have a few, which I am not sharing here, because I only found it after paying $5, but not only does he find distressed properties, but some of the stories that he shared were of people with deadlines, and he communicated that he could take care of everything and write them a check for two to five thousand, or they could lose control of the property, and not receive anything for it.

At the end he indicated that he wanted to go bigger and faster, getting into flipping larger houses in nicer neighborhoods. He could turn a much larger profit than he would buying $7,500 houses and subcontracting was faster than doing everything himself.

I don't know, it feels like those car channels that start out modifying Civics, but they become popular, and start buying exotic cars. I believe that Strong Bad said it best: "I can't relate."
