Cash Buyers needed
In need of finding cash buyers and struggling can you guys drop some tips or ways to find them below.
Just JV with someone who is experienced at dispo. I use Propstream, InvestorLift, LandVision to create three, separate buyer lists.

I will go out on a limb here and say, the reason why you are struggling is because you are trying to find cash buyers.
Go find delas my dude. Once you have a deal what cash buyer will think twice about reaching out to you to get their claws on that deal?
Cash buyers come automatically when you have deals. Focus on getting great deals under contract!
Obey The Monkey, Always!

I do not mean to be negative here, but ...
"about to be under contract" ...
be careful with that.
1) You do not have it under contract so you have nothing yet. I don't mean to be a douche .. I just know what I am talking about here. I won't go into it now.
2) Getting it "under contract" doesn't mean it is a good deal.
Why don't you share the details and we all can be of much better help.
Tell me the numbers. If the numbers are bad, you can escape hell by walking away NOW before you actually get the contract signed.
What is the ARV? The ACTUAL ARV.
What is the cost of repairs? Show pics.
Share this with me here and I will genuinely give you my opinion on this.

A home in Bardstown KY arv in the area with comps 225k and with estimated repairs of 65k (said by the seller) and negotiating it for around 105k. I currently don’t have much photos expect the ones she provided and are waiting for more to be sent.

The seller NEVER gets the ARV right... so you know.. but apart from that. Lets assume it is correct.
$105 + $65 = $170
Closing costs I would suspect to be about $16K so you are all in for $196.
Now this doesn't include a safety margin, or holding costs etc. etc.
The profit would be around $30K, if nothing went wrong and there are no additional costs (which is NEVER the case).
Now if you want a $10K assignment fee that would bring the profit down to $20K for the buyer
The investor would be all in for $206 and he would make a $20K profit.
That deal is too skinny for my taste.
Just to do a verification using the $70% rule (which I am fiercely against btw)
That would be ($225K x 0.7) - $65K - $10K (your fee) = $82.5K.. should have been your offer.
So I stand by my first message.
You and so many like you, are struggling because you are not focusing on the right thing. Forget cash buyers, go find a real deal. Cash buers will come.
Seriously.
I know many people ignore my advise.. and that is their own fault when they struggle.
It is hard to let go of what you want, and do what is right.
Find a deal. That is the solution.

I appreciate the insight and your for-sure right that i didn’t factor in holding costs and the other costs that’ll comes with the deal. I’ll be trying to reevaluate the deal and getting better with my offers and finding better deals.

Any time my man.
Be patient, and do your numbers right and it will happen.
Also, mind you, I didn't even factor in holding costs in my example either. So even without the holding costs in there it is still a very risky deal.
Just an FYI!
Good luck!!

Safety margin is basically giving you a bit of slack in case something goes wrong...
honeslty it is not just about something specifically going wrong, but just something that doesn't go as planned.
Let's say for example, you need the plumbing done by a certian date because electrical is already scheduled, and sheet rock is already scheduled. If the permit doesn't go through (and you don't start before it goes through) it will have a snowball effect that can derrail the entire flip (yes I am beeing a wee bit dramatic.. but trust me it does screw things up), and now, you have a snowball effect delay across the entire project, which will cause contractors to bail, find other projects, costing you mor emoney having to find contractors that can do it on the spot when you are finally ready while adding up holding costs etc. etc.
ISafety margins become more manageable when you gian more experience, but it is something very important to have.
