Would love to hear thoughts from experienced investors—does this approach make sense for a first-time real estate deal?

The building department will have a building inspector, who is the person to look at your property.  

It’s been a game-changer for many investors I’ve worked with, helping them connect faster and more effectively.Would love to share a few tips if you're interested—feel free to reach out 

I am the owner of DealMachine and take personal responsibility for making sure we communicate clearly and have issued a refund to you (the initial charge was April 2023 and it is 2025 now... sorry it took so long to see this).Direct mail is a hard cost, so when you send out direct mail, you get the first 20 free during the free trial. 

We have had some situations like this and even still some sellers prefer to deal with a buyer that has the money in their personal account.

I'm also an investor-friendly agent that works nearly exclusively with short term rental clients, so happy to chat more about the details on where to look, how to find the best options, underwriting, etc. 

If you're seeing websites with super old deals on them, that just means that person it not being active in taking them down. 

Personally, I like to keep slightly higher reserves with a higher deductible and only plan to file claims in cases of large/catastrophic losses.

There are no other investors involved.  

Follow the procedures for eviction and make sure you name the person on the lease and all occupants (ie literally write 'all occupants').
