Years ago I got suckered into his photo copied manual books. It was only 2K not 50K. What a shark. This guy is a con artists. I thought being in a REIE meeting it would be legitimate. Not

I'm trying to wholesale a house in Burlingame,CA I know the investors Buy these houses for over a million tear it down and build a new 5,000 sq foot house. This will be my first wholesale. I was wondering if you put a value for the repair cost when making an offer. I found a tear down house that comps for 1.8 million I'm trying to figure out what is a good offer. I would be selling it to a general contractor that would build the new house.

I was a late follower of Todd. I went back to the first Podcasts in 2012. I noticed the theme was lease options was great and wholesaling was not. Now I listen to 2016 podcasts and hear nothing about lease options and wholesaling is great. Is this market not good for lease options. Does anybody know what works and what I should concentrate on. I'm tired of following the shiny new ball.  I own  a construction business just turned 51 and was wondering how long my body will be able to work construction. My dream was to work real estate while traveling.  Does anybody think this could be a reality.

Welcome.

I live in Burlingame and I'm looking for a REI or any local real estate group like Bigger Pockets. Any Ideas. Groups with No up sell. Any Ideas how to get the 2-3% returns. I see this all over Bigger pockets. They say your rents should be 2-3% of the gross sell price. I moved out to stockton, Tracy and still can't find it. What do you think

I'm in the San Francisco area. Prices are to high for me so I'm looking one hour away. Like in Tracy CA. I still can't wrap my head around the 2% of sell price should be what you get for your monthly rent. I'm finding things in the 260k range but only getting $1480 rent per month. Any help?
