I intend to do some flips and I am presently learning other techniques such as the BRRRR method and house hacking. 

Thank you for your reply, I am taking action out here, I have not gone knocking doors but I have mailed out letters and using other methods of bird dogging to try to generate leads.

Any personal stories, methods, or strategies for systematically finding note buyers would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not saying it can't be done or that other contractors don't use that method to a certain extent but I certainly don't.

In fact, I only recently got a credit card in order to put minor expenses on it and build on my already positive credit history (while also earning cash back rewards and having a more secure method of payment than a debit card).Thank you for at least helping me to add more background and the thought process behind *possibly* employing this strategy.

This is the most common method used to purchase real estate.

One of the most talked about methods of getting into a property with little money is hard money lenders.

@Chris Jones the method you are trying to do is called "daisy chaining" which in most cases are not good deals.

Also; If it's fully paid off, please consider the BRRRR Method for your next property to see if it makes sense for you.

@Austin WoodThere is also another method, that my work.If the property is in a really strong neighborhood with a history of consistent appreciation, say 7%, you can hold it for 10 years and sell at that time. 230K Value Now = $452K value in 10 years @7% appreciation.Clearly will only work in a neighborhood that has that history, otherwise it's flipping coins.
