where to find deals?!

[Saul Nev-z]

Hi guys new to this, been researching rental properties as an investment for a while now, working on my credit, saving for a down payment, watching YouTube videos and what not. I've been talking to realtors around my area but still have yet talked to a lender. i live in California so that's out of my budget (prefer elsewhere). where do you guys see potential cash flow deals at? do you guys use a specific site? other than Zillow and realtor, I feel like they never show fixer uppers.

Having your ducks in a row so you can buy quickly and cleanly, then working with investor-agents, lenders, and wholesalers is the best way I know of to find deals. As an agent we connect with a lot of "tire kicker" investors, so if you're a clear communicator, decisive, and ready to go and can demonstrate that to us we will bring you deals. Remember, deals are in high demand, so if you want Agents, Lenders, and Wholesalers to bring you deals you should be asking THEM what you can do to help their business, not asking for them to help you in your business. This is so counter to most of our interactions (where the buyers / client is focused on me me me) that I guarantee it will make an impression and you will be remembered.

Good luck, and if you're open to ADUs / DADUs / HouseHacks / Airbnbs / Multifamily / Subto / Wraps / Development Opportunities in the Seattle market send me a DM, I'll add you to our email list! Cheers,
