Most young girls liked Vogue, my favorite magazines as a child--I kid you not hahaha--were: Architectural Digest, New Homes Guide and Apartment Guide.I'm currently enrolled in an online course with The CE Shop to receive my salesperson license in DC.

Knowing local flood plains, city ordinances, future developments, market patterns, and countless other things is a mass amount of information to expect someone to research and digest when looking for property.Even with investors, the demographic that you claim is most likely to not need an agent, still want one typically on the buy side. 

My business partner and I are getting ready to go after a few 300 to 500 acre tracts of land to develop some into SFR and just do the entitlement on some to flip.I've used private lenders in the past many times but on smaller deals and it's always been people I knew well.We are putting together a Power Point to email a few high net worth individuals my business partner and I know and  planning to ask for a phone call as a response.

U can spend an easy 20k getting ready for market.. if the house has not gone up in value.. then your digesting your cash flow at the end of the cycle. 

It’s when ( you) partner with (1) investor and complete deal- Usually latching onto the Dispositions side of the spectrum. 1) Wholesaler Gets property under contract tract with motivated Sellers 2) Ensure due diligence and makes sure the numbers work.  3) Then Partners with another investor who gains equitable interest of the property and lines the deal up with a prospective buyer - 4)Secures buyer then reassigns back to wholesaler for a $2000 to $3000 fee-5) Wholesaler now has equitable interest back and a buyer ready to close- Buyer closes and wholesaler gets their assignment fee LESS exit fee of either $2000 - $3000 to partner who provided buyer.  

That is one reason I am a real slow mover....I want to let one digest at a time....before getting another.

@Brandon L. yep, I've already digested these - thanks for the great resources!

Considering California is a tract housing heavy environment, their margin of error should be much lower, but even today I comped a house that was more than $100K difference in actual value than what Zillow claimed.

Most newer homes are tract homes so there should be something to compare it to unless it's an older home or a custom home.  

I am new to the process and I told him I needed time to digest the information.Can someone offer me some advice?
