How do I find the deals

[Dan Schweit]

Hey all, really enjoy the community and the discussions and wanted to jump in. I have been a buy and hold rei for several years now but am very eager to jump into fix and flip properties. I am in the Los Angeles area and it is obviously a rather competitive market for this. I would love to hear how any of you have had success over recent years in finding good deals for fix and flip. Are properties that are mls listed still able to be profitable, or do you need find the off market deals to do so? What tips do you guys have for someone in my position. I appreciate the help and any networking possibilities.
