Most sellers that are open to selling you a deal off-market are just like I was with my rentals: the way to motivate them to sell is to give them a price HIGHER than they think they can get on the market.  

If it is a high end housing product you may have to use a designer because they have access to some material/finish suppliers that are otherwise unavailable but that tends to only be for the highest end housing deliveries.

Good Morning,So I have always dreamed of getting a duplex as my first house and to house hack to get my foot in the door in real estate investing.

So, is it possible to get an outright loan for say 100,000 and use that to buy, flip and sell a house for a profit?

My interests especially lie with multifamily properties, house hacking, and fix & flips.

I would focus on coaching that helps you become a local expert and build relationships with sellers, not try all the BS marketing techniques.

I’m an agent and house hacker in the north shore.

You've probably heard of big Landlords losing property, but only because they were flagrantly violating Fair Housing, running a slum, or otherwise egregiously violating the law.
