Some advice

What is the best, and easiest way (I know that it is not easy) to locate buyers for property that I am trying to flip? I'm new to the process and locating buyers for flips is my big concern. I have not been able to breakthrough and reach my first deal yet and I am wondering what strategies you guys recommend when searching for buyers when you purchase a house. Thank you

@Ryan Hardawayin my own experience wholesaling is to investor buyers and flipping is to owner occupant, more traditional buyers. Flipping usually means rehabbing and listing the home on the MLS or market for sale. Wholesaling usually means putting a property under contract and then either buying it and then reselling to an investor, or perhaps assigning the contract to an investor.

You need to get clear on whether or not you are flipping or wholesaling. Yes the buyer is the important piece for you to sell the property but it is a different focus with an owner occupant and an investor buyer.
