Dear fellow investors,

I'm getting started as a flipper in Houston, have started my marketing campaign (direct mail) but no calls yet! :(

Have reached out to wholesalers and wholesale companies but all the deals brought to me were around and above 80% ARV minus repairs + wholesale fees. I'm really afraid of getting into one of those for a flip, as they appear too risky for someone inexperienced. What intrigues me is that those deals are getting buyers! investors around here are buying them!

I'd really like to hear the opinion of experienced investors, are these the deals we should expect around here? I'm afraid it is not realistic to expect the 70% ARV minus repairs we learn is what we should be looking for. Should I at least expect to get those through direct mail later when my campaign and repeat mail becomes solid and consistent?

Appreciate your help!

@Tony Castronovo

Hello Tony,

I can totally relate to that and I really appreciate your opinion. I feel the same way. 

Can you share with me what bank you use or others you've heard are best for business accounts? I have a personal account with Chase and think it might be a good idea to open a business account with them to facilitate transfers between my accounts. Any thoughts you can offer on that?

Thank you so much! All the best in your investments!

@Ricardo Rosales

Ricardo,

Thank you so much for your advice. I have already opened my LLC, but you are right, focusing on marketing is the right path and it just helps me very much to hear that experience investors like you are doing marketing with patience and getting results. It gives me hope.

Many thanks and all the best in your investments!

I live in Katy too, would you consider adding me to your distribution list for wholesale deals? 

I really appreciate your message.
