Orange County, CA lead pipeline for flips

[Andrew Fielder]

I'm currently working as an appraiser for commercial real estate at CBRE. I'm looking to get my beak wet in the flipping business here in OC. I've read a few of the books on the subject but have no practical experience in flipping thus far.

I'm struggling with getting my lead pipeline going. MLS is so hard to find something, the good deals are gone in a day. Just wondering what marketing strategies have worked for some of the people making deals in socal?

Would be very much open to partner up with anyone willing to give me a shot.

I do have some capital to invest from selling my condo recently in addition to having lined up a few investors who would be willing to provide additional capital to fund a project. I'm also an agent and can run the numbers easily.

Any suggestions would be well received. Thank you.
