@Shawn Ward @Arash Sayyar @David Varvaro The buyers are most definitely still there for well-designed thoughtful flips under (or around) a million, so I think those willing to be bold will be rewarded. Some of the flippers we work with are pushing just a little past the bubbles where the comps are obvious, and so far it's worked well for them. I'm doing research to do one this winter myself, and I'm surprised to see what people are passing up right now.
@Julian L. I'm seeing the same thing.

Hi @Glenn Sumirat! Give Doug Smaldino at Hillhurst Mortgage a call. He is magic and a wealth of knowledge, and is both a lender and accountant. BP is blocking me from including his phone number but maybe I can message it to you.

Hi @Loren Young! I just put in a call to my stellar lender contact about this and he's going to do a bit of research and get back to me. I'll keep you posted! Where is the property located? Are you considering partners?

Hi @Steve B., I can't speak for MKE, but I am pretty familiar with the LA neighborhoods you are interested in, we have a lot of client flippers and investors in those areas. Feel free to contact me if you want to have a conversation about it. :)

Hi @Henry Murray! I found out on here, but the ones I have been to so far have been awesome. I'm trying to tag the people that run them but it's not working. The South LA one is run by K. Joli and the NELA one is run by Adriel. There is a westside one I really want to check out as well. Feel free to email or text me and I can put you in touch with them. If you look in Network, then Events, you can search for local meetups, and sometimes just on meetup.com as well. I just looked and there is one coming up in Long Beach:

Hi Henry! Welcome to BiggerPockets! I've met a few people at BP meetups that are successfully investing out of state. One of them is @Antoine Martel, who would be a great person to connect with.
