Post: Agent needed in buying flips

Hey folks.

I'm looking for recommendations on agents in the west Houston area to help me in the buying and selling process of flip houses. Any realtor can sell a flipped house so I'm primarily looking for aid in buying.

I know many people will say to not use real estate agents to buy flip houses but I'm holding a full-time job along with other responsibilities and need to use my resources as best I can.

I'm mainly looking for non-flooded houses in the west Houston area that are in need of rehab. I've already been pre-approved for a HML and really want to get this ball rolling. If anyone has recommendations, please throw them my way!

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestions @Nathan Platter . I'll definitely make some calls to the signs I see. I'm also a part of the Houston REIA, so I'll give them a go.

For sure @Quarn Corley . I'll pm you.

@Sammy G. I've been getting the Harris county tax sale emails for a while now but am not currently in a place to pay cash for a house. I've been prequalified for a HML so I'll be going that route for now. One day I'll pay cash for a house... one day.

Hey guys, 

I'm just starting out in the Houston area and have been looking for a flip house for a little over a month now in the Katy/Cypress area. My realtor and I have been putting offers on houses in Bear Creek Village but keep getting outbid by, assumingly, people who want to turn the house into a rental. Obviously, I can't keep up with their bids since they can eat the extra costs.

Anyway, I'm having trouble locking one down. I check HAR and myhousedeals.com but am wondering if there's another resource out there that I'm missing. I'd like to have a house by the end of the month to have it saleable for the summer. 

All advice is welcome. Thanks!
