Using a licensed real estate broker to help with the purchase of a foreclosure
Hi, I'm a newbie in RE investing, looking to buy my first rental property either in Orlando or Los Angeles.
Anyone here with some helpful tips to share on this topic? More specifically, I'm planning to have a licensed real estate broker to help with the purchase of a foreclosure, is that a good way to get started?
What is the best way to find a good contractor with the rehab?
Thanks!
