Need Realtor Advice: Feeling Discouraged Before I Start

Misti DelMar
Posted

I'm buying my first investment property this summer and I've been watching everything in real estate pretty closely (through Bigger Pockets and social media)....

When I'm ready to buy this summer, I'll have 20-30k saved up,  that still won't leave room for having 50-100k liquid on the side to pay over asking price, like so many people are doing. 

*Do you guys (realtors?) out there think I even have a chance? I'm open to buying anywhere. 

*Will realtors even want to work with me if they find out I don't have tons of cash on the side to pay over asking? How bad is it really out there?

(If crypto goes on another run, I will have a lot of $$$- but that's no guarantee)

Thanks for any honesty or encouragement. Trying to mentally prepare.
