Property wholesaling reduces if not eliminates, the troubles and costs that is associated with flipping properties.
Wholesale investors are considered as the matchmakers in the world of real estate.
Their main concern is to find sellers of property who owns the sort of properties according to their buyer's specifications.
If you have decided to venture into property wholesaling, the first thing that you should do is to find and purchase properties at a low amount that can generate you a profit in a short period of time.
Now, the question is where to find these properties? To save you time in hunting for wholesale properties, you must check into foreclosure listings in banks or lending institutions.
The properties you will find in the listings are usually in good conditions and need only minimal repairs.
Just a few touches and they're ready to be in the market.
Keep an eye on properties that are about to go into foreclosure, because lenders are more than just relieved to sell the property before they can actually spend money on it.
Foreclosing a property would require lenders to spend thousands of dollars, and re-selling it after it is foreclosed will require more spending until they are sold.
Property inheritance is also a potential in property wholesaling.
Usually, the person who inherited the property may find the inheritance a burden because he will have to deal with taxes and maintenance especially if he is in a financial bind.
More often than not, he will sell it for a lesser amount than what the property is actually worth.
The neighborhood and local listings is also a good place of finding investment homes.
Drive down neighborhoods, especially lower to middle class areas, and check out for "FOR SALE BY OWNERS" signs within the area.
People are agreeable to negotiations for the asking price especially if they have already found a new place and are paying two mortgages at the same time.
Do not pass on an estate sale because this is a big chance for your property wholesaling.
An estate property is left to many family members.
Usually, these family members already have their own homes and will not want to keep the property and all its contents.
They are more than willing for a quick sale so they can split the money among themselves.
Country properties are also a good inventory for property wholesaling.
Some homes have been put up for sale due to the problems in the economy lately.
The internet is also a smart place to start browsing through bargain real estates.
Be sure to take down e-mail addresses of the prospective sellers and drive down the area to check out the property.
As a wholesaler, you have to remember that your buyer is the one who will do the rehab of the property, hence, he should gain majority of the profit.
He should be able to have a good amount of money for cash out and/or equity.
Your profit, however, will depend on the property you are selling.
Property location and putting additional offers is a plus for you to have a greater profit.
