How to Find On-Market Deals
All of my personal investment properties have been found on-market
1) Be the First Offer (My 1st & 2nd deal):
Speed matters! Many great deals are lost because someone else acted faster. Get alerts and write strong offers immediately. This requires great market knowledge.
2) Find Stale Listings:
Properties sitting for 90+ days. Find out why it hasn’t sold and offer a solution:
- Seller Financing (My 3rd deal) – Help them get their price while securing better terms.
- Subject To – Take over their low-interest existing loan.
Are you still finding success on-market?

I bought 3 brand new houses in February 2025 from a builder that were listed in the MLS. The new home builders have lots of inventory for sale and sales are slow, so they are offering incentives. In this case they were offering below market interest rates in connection with a lender. Was able to get 4.75% interest fixed for 30 years and 4.25% interest fixed for 10 years and variable thereafter.
