Hi everyone,
I’m an international real estate investor exploring opportunities through ********** auctions in Philadelphia.
I’m looking to connect with experienced local investors who can share advice about the auction process, neighborhoods, property values and potential deals.
I’m also interested in building relationships with reliable local professionals or investors for possible future collaborations. If I successfully acquire a property at auction, I’d be interested in working together on inspections, renovations and resales.
Any advice, recommendations or local insights would be greatly appreciated.
With strong negotiation skills and knowledge of the market you can acquire far better property off the MLS than you can at auctions, through wholesalers etc. Not only can you match purchase price, but you can undertake ordinary diligence and structure acquisitions with more favorable settlement and financing terms.
Hi Luca, I’m based in the Greater Philadelphia area and work with investors on acquisition, renovation, and rental financing through Built Lending.
Before bidding, I’d want a local title professional to review the auction terms and property records, along with someone who knows the neighborhood to assess condition, renovation costs, and realistic resale value. Philadelphia can vary significantly from one block to the next.
Which auction platform and neighborhoods are you considering? Happy to connect, discuss the financing side, and see who in my local network might be a good fit for your team.
