Investing in South Carolina

Hello Bigger Pockets Family, I hope all is well. We finally made the moved to Myrtle Beach, SC and we are leaning towards Flips at the moment. But we are having a hard time pulling the trigger on the first property. We would like a cheaper medium flip and pay cash on our first property. We have up to $50k to spend on the right property and plenty for the renovations. It seems do able, but its like everything is against me. Ill make 12 phone calls and only connect with 1 or 2. What is up with Nobody retuning phone calls, its super annoying. Does anyone have words of encouragement, lol. HELP🤔

Hi Daniel

It takes a lot of patience to find a "flip" deal nowadays. I have done a few flips before in the past, and even 5 years ago, it took me several months to find something even close to being flip worthy. I was doing it all. Tons of we buy house signs. Meeting with realtors every week. But if you are patient, and consistent with what you are doing to find off market properties, one will come along eventually. Might take a little while though. Depending on how competitive your area is with others doing the same thing your doing to get a deal. It helps to meet up with any local investor groups like REIA.
