 Hi Everyone ..

My name is Justin and I am looking to purchase some raw land perhaps in the path of growth of Seattle,Portland and or the Salem markets.I may also be interested in purchasing a little further out from the path of growth if it is a area that people in these major metro areas are interested in retreating to.Can anyone suggest some cities/counties that is in the direct path of growth of one of these major metro areas or that is a place that is known to be desirable for people living inside of one of these areas. 
I am in the process of selecting a new market to send letters too and  really like the pacific northwest. 

Thanks ! 

This is probably too late ,I just saw this post but David Birdsong at Gulf South Title in Metairie should be able to help you

they are located at 2201 veterans blvd #200 Metairie 

We bought Jacks program a bout 3 months ago before he upgraded it...and I can tell you it really works!   My partner and I have implimated his techniques and strategies and have wholesaled one peace of land for a large profit and purchased two others for about 20 cents on the dollar that we are about to start marketing Seth Williams is awesome too we have learned allot from his Podcast and videos.

I just made $8,200 on a peace of land that I have never even seen and that I got under contract for $14,000  ,last month I made $9,000 on a house that I got under contract for $21,500 again I put none of my own money up. Yesterday I got a signed agreement in the mail for a peace of land that is worth$5,000 that I am purchasing for $700.00 ,last week I got a $4,000 vacant lot for $500.00 +$200 back taxes ....I'm not the smartest person in the world but i'm pretty sure thats better then 6% 

I dont feel the least bit worried that I am doing anything wrong because I am a principle in the transaction. 

I am now shifting my focus locally to wholesaling lease options and I am very excited about that. I personally don't see the point in getting licensed ,I use Redfin for the markets that I am in to run comps and they work just as good as the MLS in my opinion.

I know this post is old but for what its worth ,if it where not for Sean Terry flip2freedom podcast I would not have closed my first two wholesale deals (one netting me $8,200)

I don't think you could put a price on the information that he gives away for free...and if his free information is that good I am pretty sure the info that he charges for is 10x better

Sean Terry is Awesome !! I listen to his podcast everyday....it is very valuable information ...I might even say some of it is priceless ...I have spent thousands of dollars on programs  to learn this business and have learned from them but Sean offers all of this for free...if you do join his academy  and choose to pay I am sure you will get more hands on consulting type stuff ..If you have the money go for it if not just dig into the podcast

Braden ..Thanks for the insight..I am relieved to know that the Northshore isn't nearly as saturated compared to the city.That is a good thing for someone like me who is just starting out.

@Braden Smith My VA is domestic ..she is actually from Florida (no accent) and I have her set up with ring central so that she has a local area code.She is searching deferent websites looking for for sale by owners that way I guess that is what you would consider off market? When you say the market is saturated with investors do you mean the Southshore and Northshore or just Southshore? I am mainly targeting St.Tammany Parish. One problem I am having is getting good comps for several of the leads that I have ...I am using Redfin.com mainly ...because I do not have access to the MLS ...I heard allot of bad things about Zillow and trulia not giving accurate comps ...what is your opinion?
