@Tony Ramos, going back to how the Phoenix market, and Arizona in general is doing, the Phoenix metro area is doing pretty well, and the company I work for has a couple of borrowers that specialize in multi-family (some flip it after they upgrade it and stabilize occupancy).  It is a bit pricier than Tucson, which is seeing some strong growth lately without as high of a starting cost if you'd like to consider other parts of AZ.  On top of that, it was also a notable area for RE growth in the US.

Scottsdale based private lender is looking to hire a Tucson based business representative to work as a Pima County Representative.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Experience in Sales
• Microsoft Office Comprehension (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
• Real Estate Experience Preferred
• Hungry, dedicated salesperson that wants to help build a growing company

The representative will be in charge of converting prospects and existing relationships into borrowers. This will require strong interpersonal communication and public speaking skills, an education on the loan process, a knowledge on all of the company’s products and services, and knowledge on Southern Arizona’s real estate markets. Additionally, the representative will be responsible for educating prospective borrowers, either personally or in a public setting, on the company’s loan programs, and to attend networking events and other functions to cultivate new borrower relationships.

Compensation will be dependent on applicant’s level of experience.

This is a commission draw based position with incentives based on production that allow for potential to earn $100,000, or more, annually.

Please email your resume to [email protected] with subject line that reads “Tucson Business Development Associate”

Welcome to BP @Noah F Clement!

BP is a great place to network and meet a variety of individuals in the real estate arena.  Best of luck on your goal!

Hi @Kurt Heymers, welcome to BP.

I'd say the best way to start off is to call up a title company and get a farming list from them of people who have bought 2 or more properties in the past 12-24 months and that's where you can find your prospects, though it might be a mailing campaign you'd do at first.  Also, by getting in touch with a title company you can start building a relationship with them, and have them work with you when you sell homes.

One of my coworker's went to the AZREIA meeting last week, and they were able to get to know some of the people there, so that might be a good start for you too.

Hope that helps!

Hi @Allie Pfannenstiel,

You could look into private lending companies if you are looking to finance something short term.  They typically don't need to review your credit history, and can finance faster than a traditional lender.  Do keep in mind the rates are usually going to be higher with a private lender.

Welcome to BP @Bao Ma!  Do you have any before and after pictures of your flips?

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to do a search for wholesalers in Flagstaff, Prescott, Sedona, Casa Grande, and Tucson.  I've been using Google, but I feel like I might be missing some from my searches.  It would be a great help to me.

Thanks!

Hi @Hakeem Valles!  Welcome to BiggerPockets!  I sent you a pm

I might be biased, but I'd get to know the bank first, and from there they might be able to get you in touch with wholesalers and realtors that work specifically with the investment real estate market.  It would also be a good idea to find a title company that you enjoy working with, and attend the occasional lesson at one of their offices.

Mesa has been becoming a better area, but there are some places that seem a little sketchier than others.  As for rental properties out there, if you choose a location that is fairly close to the 101 and 202, and west of Alma school, and remaining north of Broadway you could find students to settle in a rental, especially in one of the townhome communities that are just off of Rio Solado.

If you're ok with the southeast valley, I'd also suggest Chandler because of the growth of businesses they've had.
