My First Deal

Posted

Forgive me if this is the wrong forum section. Also forgive me if this discussion has been talked about previously. I am new to the website and am still learning how to navigate it. 

I am a Realtor in Fayetteville, NC and plan on getting into flipping homes. I am wanting to learn about strategies to fund my first deal. My credit isn't great and I currently don't make enough to raise the capital myself. Does anyone have experience with funding a deal using other people's money with bad credit? 

Any and all help is greatly appreciated! 

Thanks!

If you don't have money and you don't have credit, you're best bet is to identify what it is that you do have to offer, and then try to find a partner with the credit and capital who needs what you have to offer. You may not be able to get a deal 50/50 right away, but it'll get you started. Just my experience as a noobie myself.
