How do you finance pre-foreclosure lead? I'd imagine there isn't enough time to get a conventional loan approved for the property before the auction date? Thanks in advanced!

How do you finance pre-foreclosure leads when they are 4 weeks out or less to their auction date? I'd imagine this isn't enough time to get a conventional loan approved for the property? Thanks in advanced!

Hi everyone, I am looking to learn more about Pre-Foreclosure/ Foreclosure homes and how to buy them. If anybody could give me any pointers that would be great. If anybody has actual experience that would be AWESOME!!

Thanks for all the help & I look forward to hearing from you

Hi Hunter. Pre-foreclosures has been my world for the last 10 years nearly. I have bought them as flips as investor, and listed them as an agent when flip doesn't make sense. Let's connect.

Hi John, how do you usually finance pre foreclosure leads? I would imagine a conventional loan would take too long to get approved in order to close before the foreclosure auction date?

Does anybody know any courses/programs that they recommend for learning how to find off-market properties? I'm specifically interested in learning how to land a pre-foreclosure deal, but I think I need a structured system for educating myself and have a teacher/mentor for support and to hold me accountable during the process. Thanks in advance!

Does anybody have a handyman they've used to patch up holes on a roof that they'd recommend that services Jersey City? I'm leaning towards hiring a skilled handyman who's cheaper than a roofer because it should be a simple patch job that shouldn't require too much specialized skill. Thank you!!

I think I'll be in a position to buy a property in about 1.5-2 years and was wondering if it's too early to decide on a market to invest due to market fluctuations? If now is too early to start picking a city, how far out until I'm ready to buy should I wait before I pick a city to start looking for deals?

Inspectors are a waste of money, unless you use them for negotiation purposes. They are not specialists, they won’t disclose all issues, and they are by no stretch of the imagination qualified enough to detail all issues with a property

Have your contractor instead walk properties with you.

Interesting I didn't know that, but good to know! Thank you!!

Quote from @Jared Fisher:

I recently bought a property and hired an inspector that my realtor recommended and said he used for his own properties, so I thought that was a good enough reason to hire the inspector myself. After a few months, there were 2 leaks and a roof specialist came and pointed out the areas of the roof that had visible signs that it needed immediate repairs. Also, he showed me additional issues with the roof that were visible by just looking at the defected areas. According to this roof guy and another contractor, each of these issues should have been caught in the initial inspection before I bought the property. My question is, how could I mitigate the risk from being in a similar situation with future properties? Is there anything I could have done differently to save myself from being in this situation?

sometimes it's good to execute with 2 inspections. This issue is actually more common with inspector that's recommended by realtor, they started to think it's an easy regular job.

Good advice, thank you!
