getting a prop under contract
I'm in DFW and had my 1st motivated seller reach out through my website to sell his house. Numbers look great but I need a little more time to put my 1st funds together - or - just wholesale it.
My question would be how much to offer the owner to let me have it for 30 days. He wants to close in 7...Yikes......I have to slam this puppy into high gear quick b/c I think there would be 100K in profit once flipped. He started reno and got an overseas job. Wants to "cut his losses and sell asap".
Wish me luck....and please help with any info on getting a place under contract.
