Facebook marketplace may be a bit more work butdefinitely worth exploring and looking up reviews for different brands peopleare selling.

Welcome - have you gotten any properties/projects under your belt yet or brand new? 

Here is an example of what can go wrong with a new wholesaler just like you... check out this crazy thread (it's worth reading the whole 8 pages here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/93/topics/889922-i-got-... and here is the summary: brand new wholesaler got a "virtual wholesale" deal under contract in Mississippi from NYC.

Brian,I think this is a risky investment for a brand new investor.

If you want to connect with my agent there, she may have some resources for you for different money.Yes it sure is a hot market,  I have confidence I can get a nice out value and yes I do have some good tradespeople on call, but brand new to navigating lenders (do they need to be local?)

It makes sense that the purchase price of something brand new will demand a premium.

I now spend a lot of time on things I wasn’t doing previously like looking for more deals, and building my brand.

The brand I went with was SIW windows.

That should always match cosmetically and be the same brand.

Perhaps, hiring a local co-host (or even a boutique manager) who is passionate about your property’s brand might be the sweet spot.PS: One interesting fact—Evolve’s 10% fee often excludes local vendor costs like cleaning, which can add up to an additional 10-15% of revenue.
