Hi Everyone - Please see below for the zoom meetup link. We will have an awesome guest speaker who has been investing in Tallahassee since 2014. Fast forward to 2021, and he now owns 7 single family homes, a 32 unit apartment building, and works for a local development company. He will be sharing his investment journey and doing some Q & A at the end. Hope to see everyone there!

Post: DC Wholesaling Fee Question

Emily SegalPosted

Hi BP,

Does anyone know what a "normal" wholesaling fee would be in the DC market? I have recently met a developer in the area and brought him information on two property leads without sharing the exact address. He is interested in the properties and would like to go see them in person. As of now, I do not have either of them under contract.

The developer has sent me a template for the contract that he uses for finders fees and asked me to fill it out, including the amount in the compensation section. This is my first time working on a potential wholesale deal so any advice would be appreciated! 

Thanks,

Emily Segal

Hi Jade! I am also new to investing and investigating the Baltimore market. One tool I have been using to analyze properties is the crime map run by the police department. You can search the exact address and it will tell you what crime has been reported in that area in the last 3 months and the frequency. Hope this helps!

Post: Guidance on Baltimore Area

Hello, Everyone!

I'm new to the BP community and looking to start investing in rental properties and eventually make my way up to commercial real estate. Ideally, I would like to get to the point where I can be involved in real estate full time. I have been reading the books, listening to the BP podcast, and have started going on showings of single family units in my area.  

I've been living in Baltimore, MD since 2017 so I have started looking at properties here. However, experienced investors always talk about the importance of location and I'm wondering if Baltimore is the right place to get started in. Overall, the city does not have the best reputation for crime rates and has been experiencing some political turmoil. Does anyone have thoughts/advice on this area that they could share?  

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time.

Emily
