Real estate agent in NY... Looking to start doing wholesale

Real Estate Agent · Hempstead, NY · Member since 2016 · 12 posts · 2 votes

My name is Camille Simpson. I am current a real estate agent for NY.  I am also in school for my master in social work. I got involved with real estate because I worked in a shelter. I realized so many did not have the luxury to purchase or rent a house. Once I got involved in real estate, I realized that I want to do more in the field. I start to to read about investing in real estate. I would like as much as guidance to get me start. I just recenlty got a contract for a house in bedstuy.

    Hi @Camille Simpson

    Welcome to BP.  I grew up in Hempstead, so I am feeling very nostalgic right now.

    Hopefully you have had a chance to listen to some of the podcasts.  I listened to them all from #1 -  #125 and then I started over again.

    Are you looking to flip or buy and hold.  If you get that place in BedStuy let us all know.  

    Good luck.

    Check with your broker before you attempt a wholesale deal.

    I want to know how can I express my interest to her that I want to do that on side. It's my own buyers and sellers.

    @Camille Simpson

    Hey Camille welcome to the great world of Real Estate and specifically BP.

    Wholesaling in NYC is harder than other places. But if you work hard the rewards are well worth the effort!!

    You can reach out to me if you have any questions.

    Also Brandon has written a couple of great books including "How to get involved in RE with no or low money down". I highly recommend that one!
