This x 1000000This is what you need to do.If you're working with an agent they should be doing this for you.Recently, I was in the same situation with several buyers on new construction.

Hope this helps, and if you have any further questions, I am a real estate agent in Brooklyn and Long Island, and would be happy to connect

Do you work with a real estate agent?

Since you are a beginner, you should expect to see lower leverage - think 70% vs. 85-90% but that quickly changes as you get experience.Specifically, get your financial files together, work with a real estate agent to find your property and connect with contractors to put together a budget and a scope of work.

If you need a listing agent, I would love to list it for you. 

We found this deal online, the MLS, then my contractor was driving thru the neighborhood, the seller's agent was there.

It's been a wild ride of learning about wholesaling, flips, BRRRRs, deals, and market tricks straight from some of the best in the biz.I'm actively seeking to expand my network by connecting with investor-friendly real estate agents, wholesalers, and contractors near the Minnesota Twin Cities area.

Feel free to reach out, I am a featured agent on here & I love this business!

Participate in online forums, go to local real estate meetings, and think about contacting local real estate agents.
