@Dennis L Lewis Jr I got my first deal with O down, but I use OPM, you can use your money to partner with a rehabber and make some money while you are learning in the same time

@Brian Pulaski We do comps and from the lowest, we send at 70% value, this is a numbers game, I got one every 50 to 70 offers, and sometimes We got nice price reduction, Do not take personal if the seller gets mad, price reductions are easier to get when you have a full inspection report with a General Contractor Estimate, In some cases We had spend the money on the inspection and we did not get the reductions but is its part of the business,

@Cody Evans , i do wholesale a lot but do not see the properties inside until there are under contract, on the inspection period I will get the estimates and negotiate the price, and Yes, we have been able to bring the price down, my best one was 90k price reduction

@Taylor Nunn , If I could start over again, I would jump on investing younger, I would go to the REIAS, I would not be a good Realtor for so long without learning to invest, I would partner with a lot of my clients to split profits on their acquisitions

@Cody Evans nice work, the way I learned was with the contractors, try to call them and meet him in one of the properties, if you can not get access just try to estimate from outside and you will get a better estimate when you get the house under contract and you will do the inspections,

@Justin Hull Real Estate has been for a long time a great investment, the "Tradicional Investments" has been for less than a 100 years, You can use a lot of Leverage on Money, work and time on Real Estate, you are the one who controls your investment, ask her to read Rich Woman and start listening "The Real Estate Guys Show podcast
