I have been working with an agent for a while; Unsuccessfully looking at homes. We are getting impatient in our process. We are in the Norfolk Va. area. Please give input, searching for homes to flip. Any help that is given is greatly apreciated. Thank you
Hello BEASAU,
Perhaps without realizing it, you’ve identified the problem…“I have been working with an agent for a while; Unsuccessfully looking at homes.”
What EXACTLY are you looking for? What is your EXIT strategy? Why are you using a realtor?
I would suspect that indeed you are successfully “looking” at homes…the same homes your realtor wants to sell you at retail. What you’re failing to do is look at investments that will make you $$ rather than wasting time with him/her. Learn other methods of identifying investment opportunities and invest in your RE education. This board is a great start.
Just for kicks, compare the letters in the word “retail” with “realtor”. I think the difference will work out to about 20% equity…IMHO
Best of luck,
Dave
This may not help you right now, but once you do your first flip and your network of professionals knows it, more deals will fall into your lap. It’s like the good ol boys club. Just got to keep looking for that first. There’s a lot of competetion out there trying to do the same thing.
