I figured I could earn a money market return on the cash during that time and offset some a large rehab I have going on. 

My husband has been looking into getting into real estate wholesaling.After watching a bunch of videos and looking around wholesaling FB groups, I see that there is a very large majority of people that think that telling homeowners they are the buyers when in fact they really aren't isn't wrong.Am I the only one that doesn't think this is right?

Try to be the first one in your area to make any large move that can make you more money and be able to justify it.   

RE has been part of my life since the beginning, my father was a developer - very small scale, 20-40 lot neighborhoods which were mostly ranch/split foyer starter homes.

I’m curious why you are deciding to go after such a large project on what sounds to be your first flip?

We are going to start developing land that we bought across from an In-N-Out as our first development and I would love to hear your thoughts on how we can maximize our investment.Also real estate agents / brokers who have worked with large retail or commercial tenants, let's talk.

Thats how you scale.

Especially if you are not flipping the housing so you have no large amount of cashing coming your way. 

im fairly sure yoh can change locks on a tenant that isnt paying. thats how storage units end up auctioning off units. just be careful if thats your path as the garage is right next to your primary residence. if its not a large sun, i would change locks and tell him he can have everything back when he comes with someone to clean out the garage.

Hi Bowman, it seems to me that your biggest disadvantage will come from the lack of knowledge about what is feasible in the market you are in, because I think that should largely affect what your acquisition strategy is.For example you may want to buy something that cashflows but if you are in a rapidly appreciating market like we are in right now in the Twin Cities, you will have a hard time finding something to get excited about and will need to target different asset types or adjust to find another way to get your money to work for you.In this market your advantages aren't particularly helpful as there is so much money chasing deals, that the ability to qualify for financing doesn't really set you apart.
