@Bethanie Blomeke... I would love to help you out with finding deals. I am a wholesaler that LIVES in Jax and I am direct to the seller on every deal I send out, the times that I am not direct to the seller it is because someone who works on my office is. I DO NOT "Daisy Chain" properties AND I make sure that I can sell a DEAL to an investor.
My process is like this... Send out 1k mailings, get 100 people to call about the mailings, 10 of those people are what we consider deals (meaning there is enough meat on the bone for the seller, myself, and the buyer). If I cant give the investor a good deal then I do not purchase the property.
What I consider a DEAL: If you are looking for buy and hold I will not send you anything that is less than a 9% return at the *current rent*, however I almost always get 10%+ return for my investors.
If you are looking for a Flip than I will only send you deals that you get 15%+ return, but I have never sold one at a 15% return, they have all been 20%+
I am also a licensed Realtor and abide by their code of ethics and work for a company that actually has the funds to purchase all of the properties we put under contract.
I suggest you check out our website which you can find on my profile (not sure if I'm allowed to post it on here)
@Mark Friesand @Jack Bobeck Are both extremely well versed in this market (I've been reading their comments for years) and both have their own experiences with wholesalers.
Not all of us are shady :)
I would love a chance to help you achieve your REI goals.
