Lonnie I got started rehabbing / flipping with an internship for a developer.

Having worked on deals for Shawn that came close (including some 7 figure ones), the bottom line is that you want to do two things:1) Talk to a lot of people that want to change their current circumstance.2) Find the solution that works for them.It isn't magic, but it is hard work.

The right choice really depends on your personal circumstances like it does with the choice of entity for people.

You should definitely try to determine as much as possible about the seller's circumstances, and what business interests or other things are going on, aside from this property.

Time constraints or lack of knowledge or even fear are their hurdles and most simply want to deal with a company they develop a high level of trust with.

I am happy to share my experiences and even some tools I developed for myself.

I am in Southern California, I currently work for a RE Developer and going nowhere fast.

These are new developments so it comes around a year later when it finally causes a backup or overflow.

This is very important to me as far as making this a workable deal given my circumstances.

In some areas farmers are buying back land they sold to developers several years ago for 25-50% of the prior sales price.
