New investor seeks guidance, advice in Tampa and surrounding area

Hey All - I am a new investor wanting to get started in the Tampa and surrounding area's. I am currently flipping in NJ but the winters are taking their toll! Will be virtually wholesaling for now until I relocate. 

I deal in SFH and any advice on Title Companies, Lawyers, bird doggers and Real Estate Agents familiar with wholesaling as well as markets to target and those to avoid will be greatly appreciated.

I would love to get to know local investors and other real estate professionals, so please reach out so that we can talk real estate!

Thanx and have a great day!

Hey Robb,

I would recommend coming here and creating a team before trying to do it virtually. The Tampa Bay market is very hot right now and homeowners are overwhelmed with the amount of marketing they are getting so it has been very difficult for investors in general to get a good deal. I have been doing my own marketing for my flips and rentals and it took me close to 8 months to get two good deals. With that said, I don't think it would be impossible to do it virtually but it would be way more challenging. 

Whenever you come please let me know, I would love to meet and talk real estate. 

Good Luck!
