Investors, 

I would like to invite you to an open house that i am doing at one of the Flips that we have completed. 

This open house is for investors who want to learn our approach for renovating flips as well as learning pricing. The host is a Mortgage broker who has been doing loans for 14 years and investing for just over 10. As a company we own 72 doors and have renovated over 100 homes (rentals and flips combined). 

This event will be a great place to network and learn for free :)

Post: 5 Properties Available for sale-- The Power of Teamwork

Investors, 

I have 3 houses that I need to sell quickly and another 2 that will be ready to move by the end of the week. I have all of these properties "locked up" and for most of them i have built 20 page marketing materials that describes the property in detail, has photos, has comparable sales, comparable Active/Under contract, and a breakdown of the numbers. 

I wanted to share with you these opportunities and also tell you about the power of a team. The MJA Group is 12 individuals (in office + several contractors full time) who spend all of our time learning about and helping clients obtain residential mortgages, income properties, and help them learn about investing and finances. The teams are broken into two section. 

The mortgage team consists of 3 loan officers a managing processor and 2 processors (6 total). We are in the process of bringing on another person to start as a processing assistant and having them "learn the ropes". 

The investment team consists of an operations manager, accounting controller, acquisitions team lead, property manager ( we manage 72 units that we own as a company), acquisitions/ marketing intern, acquisitions support, and 2 people who do temp labor as a property manager assistant ( we are looking for someone full time). In total we have 7 positions filled. 

The power of a team allows you to leverage the skills of all people and substitute tasks that those individuals are not good at with tasks that they are good at. Visa Versa with all employees in the company. If you are running the job solo and can identify your "Unique ability" and what makes you the happiest within your business( sometime the hardest part), i would always recommend leveraging other people to fill in the gaps and provide the service that they are best at (which will be what you are the worst at or hate). 

I would suggest as you are getting started that you hire people on a temporary basis or part time so that you can develop systems of training and continually have the business grow... Don't leverage more than you can handle. 

This leverage is where we come in! MJA Group has wholesaled just over 20 properties this year, and have purchased 18 for ourselves year to date. We currently have 5 properties "locked up" that we need to sell because we will not be able to pick up all of these at one time. All of these properties are in the SLC area. Most of them will be best as rental properties (some need work one is Turnkey)  and one would be a contractor flip or a cosmetic flip.

I am Trevor Thompson and I work with MJA Real Estate. So far this year we have wholesaled 20+ homes (most of which rental properties), we have flipped almost 10 homes this year, and purchased almost 10 units for ourselves. 

I have an opportunity to sell a Fix and Flip today. Based on our workload with our contractors we cannot take another project at this time ( already have 7 going), so i thought i would share it with other investors like yourself.

Send me an email for Sold comps (last 90 days), Active and under contract comps, tax data, current listing, Sold comps map, and active under contract map.

Brandon,

I may be late to the game on this discussion.  Did you find financing?

I live and invest in Salt Lake and Utah Counties.  I have a different solution than what has been offered already.  

Why not turn the Seller into your Lender?

If you have 20-30% down payment, chances are they have a mortgage on the property already.  Offer them a premium (points down), keep their existing loan - with a time limit if they desire, and make their mortgage payments on time.  If they are concerned you can always pay 1-2 months ahead, give them a reserve account, or hold it in an escrow company.

Call me directly if you would like to talk more about it.

Steven, 

Utah County is free and fairly easy to use.

Salt Lake County requires a subscription for the information.

I am a repeatable end buyer.  What type of properties are you marketing?
