It's also worth mentioning that I already have a good relationship with a wholesaler in town who knows other good contacts, and I am able to use some of these contacts as good resources for general knowledge and learning how it all works.I recently had to close my business of 9 years, and so instead of getting a W2 job or start some other "normal" business, I'd much rather prefer to have house flipping be my primary source of income. 

@Roy Loganeither1. your own direct marketing to property owners, or 2. through someone else (a wholesaler, another investor, your network, your uncle's neighbor who wants to sell their house and doesn't want to list it and tells your uncle)

I see people talking about getting on Wholesaler list.

Wholesale gurus are so funny.

They are pretty much wholesalers, cash or hard money almost exclusively, and a lot of buyers have an. offer accepted sight unseen.

If it expires and you don’t close because of wholesaler you get it back

I’m really interested in commercial RE, rental properties, flipping, investment, and possibly wholesale.

In our situation, property managers won't likely fit into the pie since we are looking to sell the property in the open market.However, you can always leverage your "rock star" agent who found you the deal (assuming it's not an offmarket deal or from a wholesaler) to check up on the construction every so often.

I think this is kind of a daisy chain from other sources, so it's not worth it; it's a kind of like Investor Lift for wholesalers.
