@James Strain

North Florida is a vague description of where your talking about. North Florida is hundreds of miles.

If you have money it's simple for your bank to provide a POF letter. If you don't have money your outta luck.

Wholesalers.

@Cameron H. Forbis

I don’t think my tenants hate me. I’m very fair with them and treat them like humans. If they have a problem with anything I get it solved very quickly. I also expect them to pay rent on time.

@Christian Beyer

I was in the golf business for 28 years, until 2015 when I decided to dive further into real estate. Golf courses seem like a sexy, fun, and exciting business. The truth is it is a lot of hard work. If you are in the right location with the right demographics, some money can be made, but there are a lot of variables that can eat up your profits in a heartbeat. Since Covid hit, a number of courses across the country have had the most profitable year they have had in a decade. It’s one activity or sport that people have been able to participate in. However there are many factors that make it a tough business....weather, rising fixed costs, fertilizer, chemicals, fuel, labor, insurance, and the threat of a recession. Golf is a fairly discretionary activity. Unless you have experience and are willing to be a hands on operator, you can get eaten alive in the golf business.

@Vincent Ponte

Have they not been paying rent? Find out from the owner your buying from. Drug dealers typically have plenty of cash to pay rent. It’s just a fact.

@Calvin Kwan

if your going to buy from Lowe’s or Home Depot, plan one being patient. They are sold out of most major appliances. The appliance manufacturers cannot supply the current demand.

Get your real estate license and do it legally.

@Mark Przybysz

I average getting 3-5 phone calls per day from wholesalers, 7 days a week. And around 2-3 texts per day, every day. They are unbelievably annoying. I have zero interest in working with a wholesaler. If I’m ever bored, when I get a text from one I’ll play with them and tell them I’m interested in an offer. It’s amazing how after I tell them I’m interested in an offer, I never hear back from them. Not a peep.
