The "online leads" trend becomes a vast pool of scams, each one discovering a new and "better" way to find motivated sellers via SEO/Paid adds/Social Media etc, and automatically aims to make a profit from selling those so-called leads.

I started reading online about normal wholesaling (not virtual).

We're hoping that there will be more listings coming online here in the next month or so.

Yes, there's a lot of information online, but nothing replaces and EXPERIENCED honorable agent.A seller whose listing expired with a different agent/firm is now my client; the other agent was from a town 45 minutes away from the flip property....the listing expired. 

To start your journey, I recommend focusing on building your network by joining meetups and engaging in online forums, while narrowing down your first investment based on your budget, market, and goals.

The forms are online, and it costs $100 per filing. 

Our STR/MTR portfolio typically sees around 80% occupancy, and I’ve noticed that the online travel booking sites often push properties with consistently great guest experiences.

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

If you don’t, then it’s time to start contacting the wholesaler(s) whose cash buyer’s lists you will be utilizing, any agents who have cash buyer’s lists, or fill out the form online and partner up with the Flip Man.Ideally, you want to get a cash buyer and have them sign the assignment contract within 1-3 days after getting a property under contract.
