How to practice finding deals and pulling comps

James Quinn
Posted

Hello everyone, so I'm still very new to real estate and while practicing to find deals on Trulia and Zillow, i ran into a few problems that just come down to my lack of experience. I've been able to find a property or 2 that have decent cash flow, but then when i try to compare properties around for their value, i just cant seem to find a place that is under value, or somewhere that i could rehab to match value or bring it higher. I compare properties by going to the "sold" options in the area on Zillow, then sorting them by their number of bedrooms, bathrooms etc and see how they compare to the property i find. Does anyone have some tips on how to practice finding deals or running comps? Thanks!
