Approached by a commercial buyer?!

[Casey Murphy]

Hi all! This is my first time posting here so dont beat me up to bad. I've partnered with my parents on 2 flips now. The first one went well. As soon as I advertised it FSBO we had 3 families all wanting to buy it. We sold to the first person with financing and we profited nearly 38k! The one we are currently trying to sell is arguably a nicer house but in a more obscure location, a little more off the beaten path. I didnt have much success using various Facebook groups and marketplace so I wanted to try something different. I listed on Zillow as a FSBO. A day later I was contacted via text by someone representing nationalleasepurchase.com. I had never heard of them before so I tried to do some digging. The president is named Mario Garcia. I couldn't find much about him except on linkedin. I dont have one and don't know much about the platform so I wasn't able to find anything useful. Another website (cant remember the name) said that the domain name for the website was only 6 months old. I'm just new at all this and worried about getting scammed. If anyone knows anything helpful thank you in advance!

This is why people work with REALTORS that can protect you from all the unknowns.

If they are a legitimate buyer, they'll send you a legitimate written offer with legitimate earnest money funds and proof of financing for the purchase. 

I hope you're using an attorney.
