Hey BP! Just Starting Out in Snohomish County WA area

[Gabe Shultz]

Hey BP! My name is Gabe Shultz. I live in the Snohomish county WA area. Currently I work full time for Boeing on the 787 as a mechanic. After 5 years there I became very unhappy. When my unhappiness started to impact my family I knew it was time for a change. I thankfully found BP and read the Ultimate Beginners guide and have been hooked ever since. It sparked a fire inside me that I don't think will ever go out. I don't think there is ever a day where I'm not reading a book on real estate or talking about it. My ultimate goal is to be purchasing and rehabbing single and multi family properties and holding some as rentals as well as turning around and selling others. When I was younger I made some bad financial decisions that still affect my credit to this day but I am working on getting my score back up to par. Due to these bad decisions and not terrible but not so good credit score my ultimate goal will have to remain more of a long term one and I have decided to start my investing career in wholesaling.

I am currently starting up my wholesaling business and am working on building my power team. I am definitely in search of any real estate agents in my area that would like to work with me or if anyone could refer me to one or many that would be AWESOME! I definitely will bring value to the relationship as well. I know that it has to be a two way street. I am also wondering if anyone knows of any investor friendly title companies in my area that are familiar with assignment, double close etc. Lastly, if there are other members in my area that would be ok with chatting it up from time to time about our investing scene that would be great. I promise to keep the Starbucks flowin'.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to read my first post. I very much appreciate any and all comments, advice and information very much. Really, I mean it, I very much appreciate it.

Thanks,

Gabe Shultz

Welcome @Gabe Shultz from the M'ville hood!  I would love to pay your assignment fee to get some wholesale deals!!  BRING THEM TO ME!!  

I have a super awesome real estate agent at my disposal so we've got you covered!

Please do yourself a favor and START LOOKING FOR DEALS.  The most important thing you can have is a good deal.  GET THE GOOD DEALS UNDER CONTRACT FIRST, then look for buyers.  When you have a good deal, everything else will be easy to find.  Without a good deal, everything is worthless.

I would recommend contacting Doug Owens http://www.seattle-realestate-lawyer.com/ for reviewing your purchase and sale agreements and assignment contract.  He's also very investor savvy and is a pleasure to work with!
