And sometimes it never gets approved.Most banks and lenders won't touch land for that reason.If you're not experienced with land, partner with someone who is.

One of my favorite podcasts was multifamily and over engineering with Darren Sager show 48.Henry

I have a buddy who all he does is buy houses with foundation issues, he's a civil engineer and contractor, he can fix stuff that people thought would cost $70,000, he fixed it for $5500 because he knows what he's doing....figure out your strengths and use them to make deals work.

The topic of this thread is the opposite of what I'm experiencing as a wholesaler, but I've had trouble finding ACTUAL cash buyers in the last few months here in Atlanta.

I would find a little better real estate agent as if they have had this listing for more than 8 months and it has not sold, you may want an experienced agent to help you reposition the home in the market.

Studied engineering and worked in engineering/finance for a bit before quitting and working at home (started a few businesses in school).

I'm a full time civil engineer and I bought my first rental property in 2012, and have expanded to 7 rental units today which net me about $1200/month (self managed).

I know you experienced guys/gals wouldn't have gotten here in the first place, but what would you do now?

I think if anyone is considering commercial it's important they take a few classes to learn the things they don't teach you in residential - also maybe to shadow or colist with an experienced commercial agent for awhile.

Any experienced agent knows that Asking Price does not reflect Market Price, instead its the CLOSED SALES, and EXPIRED LISTINGS that are more of an indicator.
