WAYS TO FIND A DEAL:

Network of real estate brokers they bring me a deal they can write the offer and earn the commission

whenever I’m out at a networking event I just let everybody know that I’m an investor and I buy houses

Wholesalers- they assign the contract to an investor like me, who can put the capital together to buy and close on the purchase.

WAYS TO FIND A DEAL:Probate attorneys and or probate realtors when somebody dies, and their property is not put into a living trust their property is going to go into some form of probate. So there’s a lot of opportunity in probate.

FSBO’s—for sale by ownerspeople think that they just want to sell--sell it themselves to save the commission. They don’t foresee there is enough equity to pay a commission

WAYS TO FIND A DEAL:Landlords—burn out landlords their tenants just thrashed their house and they just want to get out

Contractorsare usually really good at finding deals ‘cause they’re out working and people always walk by the property and they start building relationships with neighbors in the area
