See how good your skills are on this one and while your doing this flip attempt to find the next one after you get a few under your belt then it's decision time.

So now I'm thinking starting out with some marketing for whole sales to hone my rehabing estimate and networking skills, then move on to actual rehabing to gain some capital, then buy and hold for passive income.

Yes, f is next to d, so much for my typing skills!

I've been enjoying brushing up on my old skills, from listening to podcasts to running prospect evals.

It's all timing, a little good luck and some good phone skills.

I would make sure you get either the language you want in the Contract or a price concession to take on the problem.Actually if your negotiation skills are honed you can get the discount on the price AND get it delivered vacant.. lol....Good Luck on the deal - hope it works out for you.

With three of you contributing different services, it's important to assign a value to each, be it monetary contribution or skills, etc.

We call it "anti-reia" because it is purely an exchange group, we exchange knowledge, skills, resources, deals, services.

(how to go about this I am still trying to pick up)The strategy I am looking at right now is basically just to buy and hold the property until I get more skilled in the real estate field.If your still reading this thank you very much for taking the time too,I hope to learn as much as I can from this community.Regards,Juan

Brian has a good tip re marketing for low equity deals and taking title via a subject-2 purchase or long term lease option vs trying to jump into wholesaling where you'll need extra ordinary skills at negotiating sellers into selling their property for about 50% of what zillow says it's worth (assuming it needs repairs).Good luck!!
