Thank you all for your insights! They are well recieved.

Hi Everyone,

My partner and I are working to calculate all necessary expenses to appraoch our first seller with an offer to purchase their property and wholesale it to a flipper. We have estimated all of our numbers (ARV etc.m) but are struggling to calculate the necessary rehab fees. Currently the property is completely gutted to the studs, but drywall and electrical is up to date. Does anyone recommend us having an agent or inspector look at the propoerty prior to us beginning the wholesale contract? Furthermore does anyone have a rule of thumb in ballparking rehab fees?

Thanks!

@Nate Sanow @Jack Seiden Thank you both for the warm welcomes and networking opportunity - I look forward to connecting with you both!

Hi Everyone!

My name is Brandon and I am a new real estate investor located in the Washington D.C., metro area. Im starting to get my bearings within real estate investing, the market, terminology and formulating my personal strategy to begin building wealth. I currently have litte capital and stumbled upon the idea of wholesaling real estate as a starting point to get my feet wet, build my network, learn about negotiating and dive in head first.

Im looking to connect with other investors either in the area or around the country who would have an interest in speaking with me! Im currently bootstrapping my way into the industry and would love to learn more about the DMV area, opportunities, and grow my network.

Thanks Brandon for guiding me with your books and the BP Team for having me here.

Cheers,

Brandon

Hi Everyone!

My name is Brandon and I am a new real estate investor located in the Washington D.C., metro area. Im starting to get my bearings within real estate investing, the market, terminology and formulating my personal strategy to begin building wealth. I currently have litte capital and stumbled upon the idea of wholesaling real estate as a starting point to get my feet wet, build my network, learn about negotiating and dive in head first.

Im looking to connect with other investors either in the area or around the country who would have an interest in speaking with me! Im currently bootstrapping my way into the industry and have a few questions that I feel would help me with my first step:

1) What's the best way to contact cash-buyers (3-5) that I can begin building rapport with to learn from and utilize as I begin compiling distressed propoerties?

2) What language or verbiage would you use to contact these buyers that would help me set up time to just connect with them versus try to sell them the idea of me finding real estate on their behalf - I dont want to come across as someone who only wants to use them as buyers - I want to form genuine connections.

I love building relationships and expanding my network, so I am looking forward to chatting with you all!

Happy to be here :)
