This provides an international/affluent tourist pool whom are extremely unlikely to disappear regardless of local economic conditions.

Like many of you, I started by reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, and from there, I dove into Brandon Turner’s book on real estate investing.I’m incredibly excited to embark on this new adventure and can’t wait to see where it leads.

(Auctions and foreclosures can also provide great leads.)With $20K, hard money loans are a practical option, as they emphasize a property’s ARV over your financial history.

Look at recently sold properties in the same neighborhood that match the size, condition, and style your property will have post-rehab.

Brian also mentioned, him and Ron were renovating houses on a large scale and had been building a foundation for massive traction in the workforce and affordable housing market in the Mid Atlantic (my friend Brian is an active real estate investor and GSP’s lead project/property manager).

Any leads on investor friendly agents in the area would be much appreciated!

Low or no down, seller financing and low or no interest with a balloon payment later is the holy grail (location, building condition, market also matter but it sounds like you have all that).

Appreciation, maintenance, neighborhood, eviction rate, proximity, condition, etc.

A formal business built on this seems overkill as you’re essentially paying someone for a service that already has standard model.If you and the parnter have distinct business tasks/abilities (i.e. not what you would hire an agent or contractor for), such as off-market lead generation, that’s a different discussion.

@Jorge Vazquez we stopped doing signs over 10 years ago.We had a separate phone number on our signs, so were able to track traffic & applications from them.We were getting more & BETTER leads from our online ads then the signs - so an easy choice to stop using them (also time & money savings).
