Update: We listed same day I posted this March 17th. Accepted offer today March 19th for full asking price. Remodel in University Hills 

So everyone was right - List now! Thanks 

@Allison Stewart: 2-3 weeks of "not knowing." I guess you could consider my view optimistic but yes hopefully within the next 3 weeks we will have had (at least) some sort of turning point to give a better and more clear idea of what kind of outcome can be expected. I would hope by then there was a decision made on self-isolating “lockdown” and wouldn’t take 3 more weeks for officials to take this step. But I guess you’re saying I should wait to list the home for sale?

 @Will Genrich  - yes, great!! We are still a few months out on our bigger development project, was waiting for LDC Rewrite .. but that is now also pushed back. May have a few smaller lots coming soon. I will message you 

@Jordan Moorhead @Jacob Sampson Right, of course I mean I could list it yeah sure – but then am I risking the DOM “stigma” at that point of just letting it sit there? Vs waiting to list and potentially getting multiple offers from the attention of first/new/fresh listing? Hmmmm

And I mean waiting like until we have moved past the next 2-3 weeks of not knowing whats really going on and how this will all turn out. And when people are actually able to leave their house without fearing infection.

And @Robert Eyers it’s a flip, we want to sell

Thoughts....opinions? Are people still actively buying? What do yall think .. is the Corona causing a change?

Disadvantage: Ends up sitting on the market - people aren't leaving their house = no action 

OR Advantage: Those who were ready to buy, are STILL ready to buy and not going to wait for this to end? 

Was looking for something to boost my optimism! Thanks for sharing!

Hi All – Just updating here, what I ended up doing. Never could not find a service that gave me as good of skips while still scrubbing for DNC.

I use someone off UpWork to run Skips – usually 1.50 per lead and have about a 60% success rate and easy format which is the big thing for me compared to other services I tried I was spending too much time trying to format for the skips or after and was just not worth it. I also use someone on Upwork to run through my list and mark the DNC numbers. Not sure what service he uses but have done a few test numbers from him and looks good.

Long story short I guess – Upwork peeps are able to do it for O-K cost – and I don’t have to spend hours on it.

@Sameer Bhalesha great! This gives me a nice starting point! Thanks! Will see what I can come up with

@Will Genrich will do!

This is a pretty preliminary post – but looking for any recommendations on architects and spec builders. (In Austin) Have a property were finalizing zoning on and going to want to build 6-8 units on it, looking to build a list of contacts for when we are ready to move forward.

Have done a bit of research on new co in the area, located some builders based of the permits but looks like they own the property and wasn’t a spec build. What route do you guys take to find quality builders/ architects that are willing to work with investors?
