If you can develop a good relationship with other agents, getting deals should be easier IMO. 

So in those cases I ask for the full 3% to me and see what happens regardless of what the listing broker agreed to.Often the sellers will pay my fee to get the buyers.Some commercial developers the listing brokers take a smaller fee but the developer is constantly giving them property after property to sell versus a one off transaction.So if you are given 50 million to sell in a year for your side from one client where you make 2% and then give that or more to the buyer broker it looks different than getting 3% of one 3 million deal.

I have lived in Asheville for 17 years and specialize in helping developers / investors.

Hi all,I'm trying to dive into real estate wholesaling and would like to learn how to develop the instrumental skill of estimating rehab costs.

It's different than a builder who incorporates and develops a land and sell the houses afterward with a Warranty Deed.

Call your local economic development office see what they see going on what areas are building up.Download BP’s newest book here some good due diligence in Chapter 10.

Asheville is incredible and I specialize in developers / investors looking to build and flip.

Or is it some formula you have developed by yourself? 

I'm anticipating that the first deal will have the greatest learning curve, but ultimately my goal is to develop relationships with contractors and come up with a process to make flipping as efficient as possible.  

I have a strong work ethic and am willing to do things that may be a nuisance for you so that I may have the opportunity to develop.
