What's good BP fam. I set a goal of running "comps" on properties I see on Redfin, Zillow, etc. I low key want to just jump into PropStream but I can't justify paying that amount without getting real numbers like "sold". Apparently in Texas you can only get the official sold amount through the MLS. Companies lost the ability to give that info out. So why am I going to pay when I'm doing the same thing right now on Redfin and Zillow.

So the question I have is. If I get a real estate agent to give me access how can I structure it to where it makes sense for them to do that for me. Obviously they paid money to get the access, titles etc. I’m just a newly wholesaler. So if PropStream is 100+ what is ideal to give to them monthly. Or if y’all got any other way to do this let me know

Hi Leslie,

I would recommend looking into Killeen TX. Austin is a really good rental market, but it's not really a cash flow city anymore and is more of an appreciation play. Killeen is a little more north of Austin and it still has properties that cash flow and give decent appreciation while having much lower purchase prices. You could get a triplex or a quadplex for the same cost of a single family in Austin. A lot of my clients are buying there now instead of Austin.

  Yes sir! I am currently in Killeen/Austin area. Great place to invest. 

Post: Financing a home I’m buying from my parents

Hey y’all 

I wanted to get y’all’s advice with a deal I am currently working on. 
I am in current talks with my parents to buy their home. They are currently renting it out. They still have a balance on the mortgage. About 6 years left. 
To my understanding I do not need a realtor to process the transaction. I do plan on using conventional loan so I will need to do my due diligence with inspection for the loan and get my pre approval(submitting all the paper work right now). Based on my calculations I will be able to afford getting the property plus it has a active lease from the renters that has been there for over a year already. So I see no reason why the bank won’t be willing to finance my deal.


The plan is to buy the home at the cost of whatever the evaluation of the inspection is at. My parents want to gift me the 20% down that I will technically need to give to fulfill the down payment of the loan. 
I have watched a few YouTube videos about doing this but I wanted to get y’all’s feedback and advice. Or if someone has a article/podcast/book as a suggestion. Thanks in advance y’all are the best

Hello I am completely new and have not done my first deal yet.  I was wondering if any wholesalers or investors have previous reports you can share that can give me an idea of how I should present to a hard money lender etc. I know prop stream generates reports with comps but I’m more interested in if anyone has a specific way to organize and present the offers they have. I.E. slide show, folder that is organized? Etc. Thanks in advance. 


Javier, I have found that a general CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) of the property and the area is significant. Usually using an agent is the easiest way to get one of these but if you are doing up one yourself I can send you one that I have done. Of course it doesn't have to be to this extent but it does make them happy to see this. Shoot me over your email in a DM and I will send you one i've done!


 My man. Thank you. Shooting dm now

I was wondering if anyone has experience with working with a individual who owes back taxes to the IRS and wanting to get a mortgage through government programs? Any links, tips, or advice would be wonderful thank you.

Quote from @Sierra Johnson:

I've learned the free "zillow, trulia, redfin" are helpful but shouldn't be end-all. It helps to find a local realtor, they have access to on-and off market comps and will be able to help you get accurate ones. 

Thank you thank you

Hello I am completely new to this game. I’ve read and saw that in order for me to be really effective I need to run really good comps. In order to do that I need to use a service such as Prop stream. Does anyone have experience with only having two phones and running comps? I don’t own a computer or any tablet. Thank you
