MLS flip opportunities do exist. I recently got my best investor client into a fixer in the hot Glenview neighborhood of Oakland for $565k. Rehab nearing completion now. We're coming on market next week & expect a sale around $800k. This is the 10th transaction I've done with him, avg. ROI = 20%.
Just work with a good Realtor.

Hello @Jessica Skupien ,
I'm a Top Producing Realtor with BHG/Mason-McDuffie. I work with numerous investors & am an investor myself. I come to J. Martin's MeetUps as often as I can, so know some of the members. I am intimately familiar with the East Bay market (born & raised in Berkeley; Oakland homeowner since 1981; own rental ppty in Oakland & out of state).
My opinions & approach differ in some significant ways from David's (e.g. I do not recommend relying on Open Houses to seach the available inventory & my view of your Realtor's role is much, much broader, but I'd be more than happy to discuss in detail with you anytime. I do agree with him about getting preapproved right away, but your choice of lender is very, very important (read THIS).
I would also like to invite you to visit MY WEBSITE to learn more about me, conduct MLS-direct property search, & access a variety of valuable resources. Also, be sure to check out my glowing Zillow Reviews, too!
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hi Jessica,
As a Top Producing Realtor for BHG/Mason-McDuffie (& an investor myself, with 6 income properties both local & out of state) I know how important it is to have reliable, high quality, reasonably priced pros available. I often refer electricians, plumbers, general contractors, etc. to my clients and I encourage people to use me as a resource (& my website: www.weissman-realestate.com).
My favorite roofer is:
Pacific Coast Roofing (Brian Palhouse) | 925-787-6606 | [email protected] |
Please tell Brian I referred you & let me know if I can be of further assistance.

If you're in need of a Top Producing Realtor to represent you for writing offers & negotiating into contract, look no further. I am also an investor &, in fact, own a little cash cow SFR in East Oakland (87th Ave. below International).

Keep in mind that financing raw land purchases is tricky, as is new construction lending. If anyone needs a referral to a good lender, let me know.
