I find it's better to connect with the deal, then see if it works and see if you like the area, rather than find the property and try to make that particular property into a deal.   

Hi BP, Anyone have experience in dealing with Ridgefield Park Planning board?

I know some great syndicators and I personally partner with investors on deals and typically get them returns in the 15-25% range depending on the type of deal. 

Finding the land, finding deals, etc.  

I have been doing biz out there for year, 100s and 100s and 100s of deals.

It is incredibly hard to find a cash flowing deal these days in northern UT with home prices and interest rates being so high.

This was a deal on the MLS.

My office buys deals from wholesalers quite often so we can be a great resource if/when you find a deal.Thanks!

And are currently looking for our second deal. 

All the book examples out there seem to only point to making cash offers on deals found this way.I realize that if it's too distressed, a bank won't lend on it and other financing will be necessary (hard money, partnership, private lenders, etc).
