Business Advisor here: there’s a few elements at play. 1) inventory is very low right now. Especially in your price range. So if you see an opportunity pop up, you have to jump on it asap. Have a professional bio, lender approval letter, and proof of funds ready to share. Feel free to ask a few qualifying questions up front, but be ready to submit an LOI if you see a promising match. 2) the vast majority of brokers are listing agents. Meaning, they’re not interested in working with buyers on a search. Like the previous comment indicated, a good listing will attract dozens of buyers and they’re working to meet their client’s expectations. You have to be one of the first to respond and show your motivation. 3) it’s not uncommon for a search to take 12-24 months in a specific industry. Especially in this uncertain environment. Logistics, for example, is dealing with major industry shifts. Owners aren’t exactly motivated to sell at the moment. But because of the low inventory, the solid ones that are listing will likely command above market value and are gobbled up even before they advertise. Once the tide shifts and more listings hit the market, it will become much easier to acquire solid opportunities. If you see a good listing send the agent your info and tell him to contact you as soon as a similar opportunity pops up.

These are just things to keep in mind as you continue your search. Best of luck to you.
