Most agents don't understand or have any interest in wholesaling, and honestly some agents don't seem to know much about the basics of their industry at all.While you do need to understand real estate and the real estate market, I think what's truly necessary is having the right tools and systems to help you as you begin.

Just bought a property in cabarrus county and turned out the crawl space doesn’t just need a vapor barrier it needs to be incapsulated, with trenches a sump pump and an industrial dehumidifier.

Would love to connect with others in the area and industry, I live in the Loop.

I haven't been expanding my business with LMHA since the end of 2016 per my posts above so I don't know exactly what changed, but I expect the outsourcing of inspections to private industry + some executive level leadership + replacement of staff with new faces excited to serve the needs of HUD/Landlords/Those In Need has resulted in an agency I will develop more business with.The HCVP will always be a double edged sword for landlords (See Section 8 Bible discussion) but for now I have discovered it is finally worth the effort to participate in the program.I specialize in Toledo's transition neighborhoods, discounted houses on the edge of nicer areas but also on the edge of trash...the Section 8 program allows me to get long-term tenants who are a good business model provided they are consistently managed and visited/inspected for additional "visitors" (relatives and random dogs/cats) and damage/housekeeping which can destroy a home if left unchecked.You need to know the rules, repair and renovate for long-term durability, prepare for inspections thoroughly and keep a team of contractors who will hold those standards...after 8 years we have been through a hundred inspections.

However, rates have since moved upward.A 30-year fixed rate mortgage is once again sitting around 7% interest:The real estate industry hoped 2024 would see a recovery in which mortgage rates fell and home sales climbed.

But there is a cottage industry for sure in CA in buying Riverside county and San Berdo county high desert vacant land and then reselling them.. and as I mentioned in certain counties in N.

There's plenty of regulation surrounding the STR industry, but it's perfectly legal and welcome here.

For inspiration, you can check out sites like Slidebean, PitchDeckHunt, or Canva (I use this personally), which have sample pitch decks and templates tailored for different industries.

I work 10-11 hour days in the auto industry so by the time I get home it is around 9 PM which is no excuse but I then wake up at 6 AM to stay swole as you have said is important.

Then depending on what's allowed you can speak with a broker who specializes in that type of property (agriculture, industrial, low density residential, etc.) and see what they think the highest and best use could be.
