[John Ellis]

For the past year I used a realtor to sell my properties. I like her she does a good job and only charges between 1-2%. However, the buyers agent will also a percentage of 3-4% Therefore, I feel I am losing 4-6% of profit. I also read about flippers finding buyers before they even have house finished. My question is two fold.

1. Do You (Other Flipper) use a realtor? If no could you please answer question 2.

2. What is your method to finding buyers?
