@Chris Bounds, @Rich Nickel

+1 to @Gautam Venkatesan suggestion for August REI. They are based in Garland and they service all of my OF notes. They are especially helpful with my Sub 2 deals. They only charge $35 per month and report to at least one of the credit bureaus, maybe all of them by now. I pass that $35 per month fee on the buyer, btw.

My first mentor in this business told me to be careful taking advice from people who had not yet done what I was seeking to do, or from those who had failed.  It's akin to having a personal trainer who is 100 lbs overweight...  Doubtful that person can really help you get where you want to be :)

@Mark Allen,

You can also assign a sub to contract - basically wholesale it to someone who has experience doing sub to deals.  I have done several of these over the past couple of years - feel free to reach out if I can help walk you through it!

Has anyone rec'd any decent leads from this post?

Yes!  They great!

I have web leads from the following cities that are too far for me to work:

Bonham, Tx

Palestine, Tx

El Paso, Tx

Mineral Wells, Tx

Comanche, Tx

Paris, Tx

If anyone is interested in partnering up, please contact me and let's make some money together!

@Brennon Manske , I would reach out to Arnie Abramson at Texas Tax Sales.

I have not done one of these but would be interested in the process as well. Their website is www.txtaxsales.com. As I understand it they will partner with you on the right deal.

Good Luck!

I agree with Andrew. There is an area just south of Jefferson off of Ravinia that has some very nice homes. Oak Cliff is a very large part of Dallas so to classify it all as a war zone is not really fair or accurate :)

More to answer the question... Vacant lots in Dallas close to downtown or near major interstates are becoming a premium. I'm not surprised to see a developer go in and build out a subdivision or two if they can find the land to do it.

I have a lead for a property in Sulpher Springs, Tx (East of Greenville) nearly 2 hours East of Dallas... I'm looking for a partner with boots on the ground to meet with the owners, take photos, etc. Profits split 50/50 - we can work together to decide if we want to flip it or wholesale it.

Give me a call at 817.501.3295 if you're interested!

@Jessica G. Wow! Great job! Vinyl Plank is really under-rated amongst "rehabbers" but depending upon the property and location, it's a very viable alternative to manufactured wood floors!

Out of curiosity, where is the house and what do you plan to list it for?

jacob, its $150 setup and $35 per month. I have the borrowers pay these fees.
