Just Starting off, may have found a deal
So I am just starting off on my journey as a Real Estate Investor, and May have found a off market deal by an agent I know in the area. Here are the details
Asking price 80K
Repair - she(agent) says 100k (I haven’t seen inside yet)
ARV is 325k
I was going to try to wholesale it for 90k for a 10K assignment fee. My question is, should I start skip tracing the cash buyers in that area before putting it under contract? How does it work when an agent is involved? Before anything should I go see the property to confirm repair cost? Everything seems so easy until you have a deal on your lap 😂

The better question is if the ARV is anywhere close to 325k, why are you not flipping this house yourself? That could catapult your net worth and allow you to 1031 exchange into many future deals.
