Hi Everyone,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Real estate wholesalers and flippers today know that finding deals is not as easy as it was just a few years ago, but one thing remains true: real estate is still very much a relationship-based business.

So whether you're driving for dollars, hustling with bandit signs, or setting up lead generation online, you still need to build those relationships.

In this post I highlight 35 real estate business relationships you should build to maximize the number of leads you get:

Hey BiggerPockets Community,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software.

Today I'll talk a little bit about two free tools that will make you look like a rock star to your cash buyers. The first is the After Repair Value calculator, and the second is the Comps Adjustment tool.

Putting yourself in your buyer's shoes, there are two questions you have to ask yourself when analyzing a potential property to put under contract.

Can the buyer profit?

First, you need to know if your cash buyers will even consider the deal you're looking at. Does it have enough spread to fit both your AND their profit? Getting an accurate After Repair Value can be accomplished with this free tool that imports comps for your property.

How do we get to Win-Win

Seasoned cash buyers can smell a bad deal from a mile away, but as you bring your buyers win-win deals, they will keep coming back for more.

How do you get to win-win stage? It's easy, take the time to do the research on a property you're putting under contract by performing a comps adjustment on it.

99% of wholesalers will not take this extra step; but I guarantee you, when you do the legwork, and get to the same result as the cash buyer, THAT is a deal worth working.

Run an analysis on a potential property you're interested in getting under contract instantly with the free ARV Calculator and Comps Adjustment tools today:

Hi Everyone,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Real estate investors today know that finding deals is not as easy as it was just a few years ago.

Properties on the MLS are going for tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars over asking.

This makes finding a deal on the MLS very difficult, although there are still deals to be had if you can find a property that is hugely undervalued.

The alternative to the MLS is to think outside of the box, and utilize every single method, strategy, and website that can possibly net a deal.

Such sources of deals can be as well-known as putting out 'We Buy Houses' signs on every street corner.

Not so obvious methods would be looking at property seized by the IRS or other government real property surplus sites.

That's just one example of how to find wholesale and off-market deals online.

I have compiled a list of 54 other methods, check it out at this link:

That answer depends entirely on what you need.  If your focus is purely on the website, then they can certainly be a great option.  If you are looking at more than just a website with a more integrated approach to your investment systems, then I would look at other options.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Kuba and I'm the founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software based in Los Angeles.

I wanted to let the BiggerPockets community know about two tools that I built out that are free for anyone to use: the ARV Calculator and Comps Adjustment tool combo, that could save you thousands on your next investment.

If you've ever found yourself in a situation where you were looking for comps as part of your After Repair Value calculations, but everything that was coming back was just not the same as your subject property, you need this tool.

More bedrooms? Less Bathrooms? Pool? No pool? This all matters.

On my very first flip I did not account for the fact that all the comps had a garage, and my property did not.

That was an expensive mistake that shaved $15,000 off the profitability of my flip.

If I had just taken a few extra minutes to adjust the comps, I could have avoided it entirely, instead of finding out months later when it was time to sell.

It's exactly why I built out the free ARV Calculator and Comps Adjustment tool, so that others could avoid the same scenario.

Wouldn't you like to know if you're going to lose money, before you make the deal?

Hey BiggerPockets Community,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Today I'll talk a little bit about two free tools on the site that will save you time and money. The first is the After Repair Value Calculator, and the second is the Comps Adjustment tool.

Like many new investors, when I first started to fix and flip and needed to find a property's After Repair Value, I used a spreadsheet to type up my comps and average their values using basic formulas.

However, my annoyance grew with having to save version after version of a spreadsheet, deleting rows and copying content, and having to manually update formulas over and over.

I created REIkit's online online Calculator to make it as painless as possible to create a property analysis, adjust the comps, and save the analysis.

Speaking of adjusting the comps, now for the part where you may save money.

In my original spreadsheets I realized that by just averaging the values of the comps, I missed out on an important step, which was adjusting the comps for features.

If you've ever experienced frustration with trying to find comps exactly like the subject property, you might know where I'm coming from.

It may have even occurred to you that if your subject property has a garage, shouldn't that mean your subject property is worth more than a comp without a garage? The answer is "Yes, absolutely."

It is absolutely crucial to compare, and adjust, for features like beds, baths, garages and pools before you commit to a deal.
