What should I do in the next couple of days (as 30 April is not far) to increase my chances to get this property under my belt ?

Even without a flip under my belt, others seem to want to partner with me because of how much i have bought in the buy and hold space with my own money (not much compared to the pros on here).

@Steven Liu While I am new to investing I have a little life experience under my belt and the words "Quit my job and jump in with both feet" are missing a key element "a real plan".- What RE niche are you interested in?

couple things either the investors don't like the area and don't agree with your numbers.. or they don't have confidence in your ability to execute.And or your not paying enough for the capital if you can't pull this off you should offer up a 50 /50 or 70/30 to the money so you at least get a deal.. and start to build your experience bucket.Its one thing I see most that are starting out do that is in my mind a critical error.. they think they should be able to borrow private money and get as cheap as money as possible.. when in fact starting out it should be the opposite ... they should be looking for someone who will take a flyer with them since they have no money or real experience and will mitigate a potential loss with a very big upside.Once you get a few of these under your belt and have track record and maybe a little jingle in your pocket you can go HML route with no partner or your current partners will have enough trust and faith to give you bonus or better returns.those starting out need to get deals done no shop for the cheapest money waste a ton of time on the front end finding the deals and then lose them because they could not get them funded.If you made 10k on this deal and the investor made 40k at least you got something instead of having to make this post that your deal failed.Think about it.Even after 40 years in this business I know my competition for investor dollars is always trying to find cheapest money...

I am down in the banana belt here and still all rains....Little dust on the mountains...

I have aspirations for starting a flipping business, but want to start by getting one project under my belt before fully creating this business.

I think the emerging markets for class c is more in the sun belt.

Need to get some more experience under my belt!

as a semi new flipper myself who has a few under my belt trust me something will go wrong always.

Focus on learning the business and getting a couple successful deals under your belt.
