Kevin Cardinale How is this for a first deal?
4 October 2011 | 14 replies
Sounds like you need to wholesale to build some cash.Even with no money down deals you will have closing costs and title to pay.Given the market the good properties will have multiple offers attached to them.As far as properties being listed awhile and not selling this is very common.It's called the "watch and wait" game.The "bid-ask gap" difference is what the buyers will pay under what terms and what the seller is asking for and under what terms.It doesn't matter who the seller is as far as they all need to go through a selling process.At first expectations are inflated,then reality sets in but there is resistance,then the seller gives in and starts chasing the market down,finally the seller gets realistic at a price and terms a buyer will do a deal at.This is why you see properties go through foreclosure and list at a crazy price.No activity is on the property until multiple markdowns have occurred.Then suddenly once it hits a certain price the buyers come out of the woodwork to finally bid.You have to find an off market deal where you are the only game in town or time the list price where it is about to be marked down but not yet and get under contract for a much lower then current asking price before the competition bids on it.
