Post: Is it all about the money?

I live in CA and began out of state investing 3 years ago. I have an amazing property manager/realtor and contractor.  It would be impossible to do long distance investing without them. Research a market, find boots on the ground and make sure the numbers work. Don't just buy a house because it is cheap, everyone has posted good advice here. Taking action is the only way to grow but you want to be smart about it.

Sandrene, Congratulations on having multiple deals! I can help you with earnest money deposits. We can close quickly, 2-3 days if all your ducks are in a row. To protect all parties, monies are run through the escrow/title company and remain there until the deal is done. There is a flat fee depending on amount needed. Please reach out and I will get you the rate sheet. Thank you

I am just closing on my first flip as well. It took longer than expected to sell, 2 months for cosmetic rehab and 2 months to get under contract. HML due soon after closing, the market has changed but we will still make a profit. We did have alot of showings so that is important. I would make sure it is advertised well and try and be patient. Good Luck!
