Selling your 1rst property
After taking initiative, landing the deal, and successfully completing renovations, how can you be sure your property is going to sell?

@Taylor Nunn I would recommend starting with the end in mind. When you find a property that looks promising, work with a real estate broker to conservatively estimate the after-repair market value (ARV) of the property that's supported by plenty of comps. That should give you a fairly reliable selling price. Then see what expected profits are after estimated deducting purchase, rehab, and selling costs. If you're comfortable with the estimated profits, and you have a reliable expected selling price, then it's probably a good deal. Hopefully that helps a little.
