Show people what the investment looks like over the life cycle otherwise people simply don't have enough information to go off of.

@Eric S. new britain. that is your answer. i invest there. i spent my whole life in CT besides the last few years. i know the area well. i own a few multi-family properties there currently. i went CCSU in new britain and lived in the town for 10 years. its an incredible source of cash flow and, in my opinion, the current mayor is doing all the right things. i actually see growth happening in that town, compared to the rest of CT that is struggling. happy to help in any way i can. just let me know!

We've posted numerous times that +95% of agents only know how to work with owner-occupied transactions which are mostly emotionally based transactions.So, why are you even bothering contacting these agents?

I can give you mine you will need to make alterations but it's my bread & butter.

Paint an alluring picture of what the buyers life could look like.Lastly, remember fair housing rules (although a flat fee broker should review and eliminate any violations as part of their quality control process).

In fact, I think its the best move you can do if it fits your life situation. 

Even though in real life you should be able to buy it for 5% less the estate is saving in real estate commissions. 

Total cost is $3,200.I know the De Minimus safe harbor rule allows you to deduct anything under $2,500 and that anything over this amount, if considered a capital improvement, would need to be capitalized and depreciated over a certain period of time (the life expectancy of the improvement).

The people who say wholesaling is easy are generally in two camps:- A Guru with a mentorship or training program- A student who just paid thousands of dollars to one of those gurus, and is required to post about how life changing the program was, often using "Go Giver" "Abundance Mindset" or other similar hustle culture language. 

Anyone that is brazen enough to show off how great of a life they are living on instagram, while using that life to attract investors, I am hugely skeptical of.
