Growth in retail, multifamily, SFH and developments have continued the positive momentum.

Realtors I know who do deals themselves often make offers which include 'buyer's agent commission will be credited to closing costs' effectively putting less cash into the property and then they list finished flips with 0% to them and 2.5-3% to the buyer's agent.I'm a newer agent (2yrs) still building my momentum and income to support a family which is from commission sales primarily for now, so I don't have much capital myself to do solo deals. 

Sure you may get some deals, but the idea in the beginning is to build momentum.

You're in a little oasis of great RE really close to some positive momentum that IMO can't be stopped.

In a strong momentum market like now in many cities, simple comps would cost investors immensely in opportunities.

Due to the holidays coming and this being my first campaign with no momentum built up, is starting my mailing now a good idea?

I think it'll be a good investment in the long term.Hope your project doesn't lose any momentum because of it, and that your flip is a great success! 

Later you can move those properties into an LLC if you find you are gaining momentum with acquisitions.  

Finding the right properties,meaning the kind that will produce monthly cash flow and long-term profits, is one of the most important skills you must develop to enjoy any success in this business.
