@Corey Clarkston Thanks for the recommendation. I am looking for any area that is not 09 or 08.  I like Arlington, Mandarin, Southside, Orange Park and Oakleaf areas. 

Hello everyone!

The time has come! I have spent the last six months digesting this amazing industry we call real estate investing and I am ready to start finding properties and making deals. I have listened to countless podcasts, read several books and most importantly worked with several rehabbers in the area learning their systems and how things are done in my market. I am ready. I have boots on the ground in the Jacksonville metropolitan area. I have several wholesaler contacts, I have a couple of great contractors that work specifically with investors, and I have three agents that are excited about selling a bunch of houses for me. 

Thing is, I am new and just like any new venture, capital is my largest hurdle. I am looking for investors who are willing to work with me. 

So, if you are interested in working with me, please send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you. 

Thanks!

@Jordan Santiago Great job! Keep up the good work!

Great job on this deal. I really can't wait for the day I get to post mine! Very motivating. Thanks!

 That was explained really well. Thank you!

@Nicole A., no, the comps are on par with the asking price. I looked at that next. I think I was confusing the tax appraisal and the actual appraisal. Wish it was that easy! lol

@Jon Holdman HA! Thank you, sir. I knew it would be a simple answer, but one that I was simply not aware of. Perfect.

So, I was pursuing some wholesaler listings and noticed that the county appraiser's values are 30k-40k less than the wholesaler asking value. Which means it is WAY below what the market would demand. And I notice that comps in that area are listed sold at around the same amount. This leads me to believe I am missing something. Anyone? :)

@Brent Coombs yes I do, Brent. That was perfectly explained, thank you so much!
