Quote from @TC Scott: When selling a house as you know the fees typically come from the seller's net proceeds (commission, closing costs etc.).

In 2024, 47% failed to sell even 1 house.

I've purchased all of my properties while out of state or out of country.

How can you sell it. does the original owner needs to sign any docs to do that?

And let’s assume that the requirements are going door to door and convincing “motivated” homeowners to sign a contract with you selling their property below “market” rate.  

The main problem with negative cashflow properties is this. 

However, I'm in the middle of a cash-out refinance of an investment property I already own.

I had to search it myself and call listing agent who edited the correct listed property and not mine :)Also, if you are getting random "I heard you were selling your house" calls and texts, they are usually wholesalers trying to get you to consider selling even if you're not.

Do you own any investment properties?

Glad to see some justice.The next round of scams will be people raising money for new deals but then using those new funds to bail out previous deals—be it flippers who can't sell or apartment investors facing refinance rates and decompressing CAP rates.
