Buying in Austin, Texas?

[Ronnie McClain]

Hello BP!

I hope this post finds you well. 

I am reaching out to any and all cash buyers in the Austin area.  If you could take a second to answer the following questions or just provide some general feedback on what kind of properties you are looking for I would be happy to help you find them.  

I do my marketing in house so it allows me to target certain areas at high quantities which has worked well for me and I see no reason it can't do the same for you.

1.) What is your investment strategy? (buy&hold, fix&flip, new build, vacation)

2.) Which zip codes do you prefer (or don't prefer) ?

3.) What scope of work are you most comfortable with? (cosmetic, gut, tear down)

4.) In what price range are you interested in purchasing?

5.) What is your target renovation budget?

6.) What is your $/sf for new builds? (If applicable)

If you would like to meet to discuss further and are in my area I would be happy to do so just let me know a time that works for you and I can make it happen.

Respectfully,

Ronnie McClain - Agent.

hi Ronnie,

You know as well as I do that Austin is a hot market for sellers, but tough for buyers. Too many wannabes chasing too few deals. The MLS would be the last place I'd look for a juicy deal but they're out there somewhere.

You just have to look. A broker friend of mine bought a duplex for way below ARV. Didn't need a ton of work and he stands to make around $150k profit. He's listing it at $399k

Good luck in your endeavors. You're gonna find a bunch of people on here who will be interested in your services. I'm just going in another direction with investing. I'm not necessarily looking in Austin. 

Good luck.
