👋🏼 fellow Huntsville investors. My biggest issue with RE here is the lack of quality, licensed GCs who want to actually take on "smaller" jobs. Does anyone have any good contractors who have the time for new projects?

@Kim A. - patience is the key in this market right now, as many of the deals we've reviewed simply don't work.  Right now, we are on track to sell more than buy in 2024, and likely will buy less properties than in any year since I started doing this in 2017.  Yes, it's that hard to find deals in Huntsville right now.  


Thanks... glad to know it's not just me. I was thinking that I was missing something. Do you have any recommendations for a good GC? That has by far been the worst part of all my flips.

Hey Kim! Congrats on flipping three houses and having a rental! That’s amazing!  I have a couple of MFs in AL, some in Birmingham. Try connecting with local real estate groups in Huntsville—Check out Meetup.com and here on Biggerpockets! FB Groups are great too, find a local one that's more investor-focused. You’ve got this—let’s get that fifth property before the year ends! 🚀💪 Let's connect! 


Thank you. Awesome! Yes, let's connect!! I've been debating on sticking my piny toe in the Bham water... lol.

Finding your 5th investment property is a great goal! It sounds like you're at a stage where you're ready to scale up. I'd love to connect with you, Kim. I'd like to share some insights about the process of finding and securing funding for investment properties especially for fix and flip deals. What's your contact info? Let's collaborate!


 Great, thanks! I'm sending you a request now..

I'm still kinda a rookie. I've flipped 3 houses & have a rental property. I'm looking to find my 5th investment property to flip. Ideally, I'd like to close on a property before the end of this year, but I feel stuck. I'm looking to connect with Huntsville locals who can assist or point me in the right direction.


 go to the local FB groups I bet there everywhere 


 Thanks, will do!

Congrats Kim! Madison County REIA is a great place to connect with investors in person. Zach does a great job with the events and the office is top notch! Also the Huntsville AL Off Market Deals Facebook Group is great to see off market properties investors are selling.


Thanks so much! I'll try to attend a meeting soon. I'm about to search for the group now.

How did you find the previous properties?  Were they successful?  Is that not a repeatable business model?  Or are you looking to find more properties?  Better properties?  More distressed properties?


2 of the 3 were successful. Only 1 was found through the MLS, but more recently that has become my main option. I do have a great realtor, but she doesn't necessarily specialize in flips/investment properties. So, I'm really just looking to find more off-market properties.
