Hello,

I have a potential deal,but need comps asap. For some reason zillow or trulia doesn't give me any info on the property. Any realtors in my area willing to help? 

Thanks,

Alesha

hello, and welcome to BP! Im from New Orleans also. this is a great place to network with like minded individuals, and learn just about anything with REI.

HAPPY INVESTING ;)

@Thomas Usher 

@Thomas Usher  this seller is motivated. I was looking to sell it to an end investor. I would love to keep it though, and fix it and sale for Retail price. I don't have the money to purchase it that way. What are the steps I need to take to get this house and sell to an  end investor? Or even what is a way I can get the money to purchase than resell ...I don't have the money or credit.

@Micah Copeland yes! I always think of the outcome. "Fear is an illusion, and I can overcome it". I am a mother of two, and I breast feed which I believe made my son EXTREMELY SPOILED!!! So going to a REI meeting would be kind of difficult at the moment. All I have to do is put a stamp on the letters and let go..but I haven't yet. Answering those calls is what I keep dwelling on..thinking I'll crack up and sound nervous. I will never know until i do it. Thanks for your kind and honest words. :))

hello all, it's been a minute since I posted anything, but i still have been creeping around. :) Well I was unsure on how I wanted to get started with REI... First I was with the B&H then looked into fix n flip, and now I'm with wholesaling. I found it to be a great way to gain capital. I am just looking for someone in my area to guide me through the process. To help me learn the ins and outs of wholesaling. So far I have a list (500) of absentee owners I purchased from list source, and a list of 80+ homes that I got from driving for dollars. IM doing direct mail marketing and I have about 80 letters ready to be mailed. I just need to go ahead a drop them off but I keep thinking what if! It's very true that one must get rid of fear and doubt to reach success. Any help, encouragement, motivation is welcome. Where are my nola Wholesalers?

hello and welcome

I am also a new investor in New Orleans.

I'm focused on wholesaling properties . I currently live in New Orleans east where there is plenty of opportunity, there are  vacant houses everywhere! It would be awesome if we can one day network maybe meet at Starbucks. Everybody loves Starbucks. 

I just spoke with an agent to give me market value and rent rates. She will give me a call after lunch with that info.when you say purchase are you meaning do i have cash on hand to purchase?..nope.. The house should need no more than a 5k or less rehab. i will def update once agent gets back with me.  @J Scott 

i wanted to start wholesaling to gain enough capital to flip and buy and hold. the property is in pretty good condition. Just need cosmetic mostly paint oh and plumbing. the mortgage loan is in the foreclosure process, so how does that work? What do i do about the mortgage? @Thomas Usher
