This new loan will allow the group to take down another $2 B of inventory over the next 2 years.

Keep this in mind Cory....You are doing nothing more than providing a service...The owner wants to sell, and you want to lock it up to sell to an end buyer..You bring in inventory to sell to the end buyer.

Good properties are moving and light rehabs are harder to find, inventories are down.I'd look for more than a market if I were starting off and moving to a new area.

One quick way is to work with other wholesalers and help them sell their inventory.

In like manner a stock symbolizes ownership in a company that usually owns real factories and inventories of real products with real patents, real employees, real customers, real patents, real branding.

It's obviously attractive for a re-developer (I think flipping isn't appropriate for homes that are purchased for 25-50k and rebuilt for 100-200k per home).The problem is that because of all of this potential inventory, there are a lot of people redeveloping homes.

This inventory coming up in most markets are landlords that could not make it and walked.

As the inventory is tight in my area I've reached out to a few wholesalers and have seen a few deals pass though my email the past few weeks.Nothing too impressive so far.

In what world is establishing your own broker/contractor teams, doing your own research, hand-picking your own PM, and having final cut on tenants (if you so choose) a worse scenario than putting blind faith into a company that profits from you continuing to buy (and thus will shape your opinion of good/bad deals to fit their inventory).I'm not saying turnkeys are bad, but I am saying they sit on the opposite side of the table from their customers.

It has to be an investment property, flips are considered business inventory not investments.
