Realtor Just Told Me Flipping Would Be Impossible

[Darrin Russell]

I was just told by my realtor that flipping without 100% cash was impossible in my area. He said there is not enough REO inventory and too many flippers. He tried to talk me into looking at some but and holds because the rental market is "red hot". I have no reason not to trust him but I am wondering what others think. Is it possible that the market in south Alabama is that saturated with investors????
