The later into next spring you get, the stiffer the competition you'll see from retail buyers.

Wholesaling is competition for a realtor and I believe that's why Mr.

There is no difference in time to manage respective portfolios, both require constant attention and deep knowledge.As to liquidity, most investors only need a fraction of their investment portfolio for liquidity so this risk can be managed (and should be) in a balanced and disciplined manner.Leverage aspects of real estate are far superior to equity/debt portfolios. 

More specifically, the supply index within a 5 mile radius of the facility - is it undersupplied, oversupplied, or at equilibrium, the quality of the competition, is it growing, stable, declining, Median Income, etc. 3.  

Since moving here to Las Vegas I have learned how competitive the flip market is and realized that I will certainly not make it if I only buy at the auctions!

The competition just wanted out.  

As a wholesaler the time saved alone is worth that, and I would imagine a flipper would appreciate the chance to save time and money by skipping the wholesaler.With that said, being a wholesaler myself I feel like it would be unwanted competition!

As @Leo Khmelniker  said, it's super competitive, and there are lots of "trending" neighborhoods/strategies.  

There was one of the 10 page long threads on here a while back that discussed people having "unfair advantages" over the competition, that thing they know or do that lets them score deals that the "average" or "median" investor can't touch.In your case it's clearly construction.

Problem is that I'm shopping around and everyone elses rates are like mid 4's to low 5's for an 80% LTV HELOC so even taking the 90% LTV option with PenFed I'm still on par with the competition it seems.
