Construction background, so I'm used to permits and licenses for everything. A couple of agents I've worked with have asked if I'd shoot photos and put together their listing flye…
Inspection keeps coming up as the piece of my real estate service work that I could do myself rather than refer out. What I can't find a straight answer on is the cost to be legit…
I'm under contract on two houses in the same suburb, closing 11 days apart, and I ended up with two different inspectors because of scheduling. So I have both agreements side by s…
Three spotters, five investor clients, and last month we delivered 74 accepted leads. Revenue split: the big client took 45 of those at $250 accepted plus $1,250 on close, and clo…
I've got capital and no deal flow, and two people have offered to send me leads. One wants a flat amount per lead he sends. The other wants nothing up front and a cut when I close…
Our partnership has four of us tracking a slow acquisition pipeline and a lender list, and we hired a consultant to build the whole stack. Pipeline for properties, a second pipeli…
Finished this in March and I've had time to look at it properly. Deal. A wholesaler in my market was drowning on the sell side. He gets contracts, he cannot move them. I took disp…
Numbers first. I've got a small seller lead product running in four metros. Right now every lead goes to three buyers at once for $95 each, so $285 a lead. Two of those buyers hav…
I've been reading closing documents for fun before I buy anything, and the same transaction seems to describe the same function three ways. The commitment comes from a title insur…
Bought 6 acres of rural land 14 months ago, planning to split it eventually. Ordered a boundary survey last month because I wanted the split lines drawn properly, and the surveyor…
I read the reporting rule text again this week because our closers keep asking what happens when a buyer entity won't hand over beneficial owner information. The rule is effective…
41 addresses on my list, mostly bank-owned and pre-foreclosure single family across two counties, and I'm putting numbers on all of them before I get inside any of them. Cleanout…
Two of the owners in my management portfolio flip, and one of them asked me to "just push it to your buyer list" when he got a house under contract. I don't have a buyer list. I h…
Five months into a paid land buyer network and I've closed zero. 400 a month, so 2,000 spent. The feed sends me 6 to 15 rural and infill lot deals a week, and I've made offers on…
Eighteen months ago I was reselling VA hours into small investor shops at $22/hr and losing bids to anyone willing to go to $19. Margin was about 34% and shrinking. I finished the…
Under contract on a 4-unit, $620k, all cash from a private lender who is taking a first position but the loan closes after, so the purchase itself lands as a non-financed transfer…
A guy I did some framing work for years back is now wholesaling and he told me his attorney does his assignment paperwork for $500 flat, whatever the deal size. He made it sound l…
Reading a draft co-hosting agreement and two clauses don't sit together. One says I'll be added as co-host on the owner's existing Airbnb account. Another says I'm an independent…
Owner up the road from me has three small cabins on a shared gravel lot, all one bedroom, all furnished already. She's been running them herself off her phone for two years and is…
Two investors, two completely different answers, same week. The first one told me to send him a couple and if he likes what he sees we'll talk about money. Friendly guy, buys mayb…
