Im open to conventional financing or seller financing.To find properties, you can network with local agents and brokers, join local real estate investment groups, use online platforms like Zillow, Realtor.com, and Redfin, send direct mail campaigns, drive for dollars, network with property managers, and explore seller financing.Good luck!

Take a close look at what other similar units look like on Zillow or other online listing sites and try and mimic them or exceed them.

When talking to property managers, ask questions regarding any guarantees they offer owners and refer to any online reviews to get a better idea of how tenants and other owners feel about working with the company.

Luckily I was in a buyer's market at the time, but about 75% of agents did not even respond to me and I could not set up appointments online because I was not a MLS member.   

Think of it this way, for example...If your rent is $2000 but it is vacant for 2 months that means your effective growth income (EGI) for a year lease = $20,0000But if you lower it to $1900 & it sits vacant for only 1 month your EGI for a year lease = $20,900You can play with the rent numbers & how long you think it could remain vacant, but at the end of the day the most expensive route is vacancy.

In either case, the wholesaler usually doesn't need to provide their own funds to complete the deal unless they are doing a double closing and need private financing for that purpose.The title company plays a key role in ensuring that the funds are processed correctly and that the transaction is legally and financially finalized, including disbursing funds to the seller and paying any fees owed to the wholesaler, private lender, or other parties involved.Contract with Seller: The wholesaler secures a property under contract, usually with a small earnest money deposit.Find Buyer: The wholesaler finds a buyer (investor) and assigns the contract, earning an assignment fee (difference in price).Closing: The buyer wires funds, the wholesaler receives the assignment fee, and the title company handles the transaction.Costs:Earnest Money: Small deposit.Marketing: Costs to find deals.Funding (if needed): For double closings.Profit: The wholesaler earns the assignment fee.prioritize transparency and value.

Apologize if these questions are vague, I am quite new to this.Happy to provide some of the data I have found thus far (though data online is scarce given the size of the town).Thanks!

Been getting nowhere with zoning laws found online and in the local library for Yonkers (in westchester county) as to whether any permits are needed in order to operate such a business. 

Market conditions also play a role, including the availability of contractors, appraisers, and lenders.
