@Barak Ben israel Welcome! I propose you look into the Midwest states Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri etc. you can get more for your money. I assist a lot of investors in Cleveland Ohio where homes are $40k or less. You can buy, hold or fix and flip. A lot of housing options in Cleveland from my experience as a Broker and investor myself. Please let me know if you have any questions about the Cleveland market. Thank you and many blessings to you young man!

@Clayton Silva Wholesaling isn’t a problem if licensing wasn’t involved. Agents were confused how to work with wholesalers and the wholesalers were sneaky, assigning deals prior to closing. So unfortunately, wholesaling should be shutdown and those investors should work directly with experienced agents!

@Edgar U. Great advice! I have land in Interlachen, FL, that I’m looking to sell. Does DealMachine provide buyer leads, or is it only for finding land sellers?

@Shanai Rogers Good information. Is Orlando FL a good market for this concept?

@David Ramirez Yes, David I see that too and that was a concern of mine, builders wanting several lots vs a single lot which makes sense. Thank you for replying!

I’m currently looking in Citrus County for a potential client. How much is the lot?

@Priscilla Z. Great information! Thank you for replying! I hear contacting agents is a good way to jump start into the business.

I want to wholesale both land/homes. I don’t want to limit myself. I see the pros and cons with both situations but definitely more pros. Thanks again!

@Kerry Noble Jr Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. Very good advice I will look into both options.

My only concerned about contacting developers is most areas I would wholesale are rural areas and developers may or may not be interested in developing in those type of locations but it doesn’t hurt to reach out and try. Thank you again!

I’m fairly new to FL and want to dive into real estate. Originally I was considering wholesaling properties (prior to getting licensed) however, I’ve stumbled across land wholesaling. I’ve purchased land in Putnam and Citrus counties and after researching land wholesaling I’m intrigued with the quick process of selling land vs selling homes.

Anyone has experience with land wholesaling? Thoughts on wholesaling homes vs land tips? How to find developers?

@Derek Fike The Midwest will always be a great market for Cashflow. Missouri, Ohio etc. Buy low, rehab, rent and repeat is the best strategy.

As an Ohio agent target area is Cleveland, I highly recommend investing there to generate rental income.

@Adam Macias Not all agents! The highest price is for listing agents. Buyer agents is looking for the same as the wholesalers are for their client(s) as well.

How is the CO market?
