Choosing the property is separate work
Not every property that meets the threshold is a suitable property. Title history, zoning, building permits and any unpermitted additions are reviewed before the purchase, because correcting them afterwards is expensive.
Off-market properties go through the same review. A low price is not, on its own, a reason.
Which tier fits your plan?
Budget, preferred region and how the property will be used usually reduce the list to a handful of options.
