Hi All - looking to get some advice on how much I should have in cash when seeking a property in North Jersey at 5% down.

Should we hold out for a better offer, or take a cash offer now?

Feel free to send me a DM if you want to discuss in more detail.

I find data on free sites like Zillow extremely helpful for days on market for certain homes, and it allows you to sort by bedrooms to see how long a potential property may sit on the market at this moment (great for comping rent prices in the area as well)if I were to live in the property, I would take advantage of the FHA low down payment option to keep cash in my pocket for Reno costs  Hope this helps!

We look for cash flow and growing markets. 

Many sheetrock crews also paint or know someone they trust that do.Don't give out large sums of cash prior to the work being done.

If you'd like a connection to an agent, feel free to shoot me a DM.  

An LLC is not free.

Feel free to inquire about their staff qualifications if it's a larger organization.2.
