in search of the great deals…HELP!!! - Posted by Matt-OH
Posted by Matt-OH on March 15, 2001 at 11:24:42:
This is to anyone out there who can tell me about how they are finding some of the greatest deals I’ve seen. I just want to know from different people around the country, how they are finding their deals. I am still new to REI and have read several books as well as made many visits to this site, but it helps to hear from people on exactly how they are finding great deals out in the real world!!! Just so you know, I’m am looking to start in buying, fixing and selling-either having the buyer get bank financing or seller-financing through me. Or possibly in flip deals. If anyone has input on using that to start with let me know too. I know there are many ways to get started in REI, I’m almost overwhelmed at times with the vast knowledge and experience of people on this website and in books I’ve read and how each one is doing different things to succeed. Anyway, enough rambling on…can anyone help me! Thanks in advance for any info anyone can provide.

Thanks for the input BillW, it will help me out, but can you explain in further detail how to go about doing some of these methods, or specifically how you have found these types of properties. Thanks a miilion.

I am studying Carleton Sheets programs and am new to market also. Here are some details on how I do some/all of the above. I am more into foreclosure properties. Search on foreclure word, it will bring all kind of websites related to foreclosures. Just by browsing you will find all kind of info. Check at county offices for foreclosures in your area.
Go into realestate websites like www.Johnlscott.com (which is one of them I like in my area) and search on properties to analyze market in different locations. If you see houses need fixing, been in the market long time, hard to sell, TLC, job transfer, divorce (meaning any motivated sellers or rehabs etc…), I do follow up on it.
I found a house on a foreclosure board where owner placed a message that he wants to sell his house (preforeclosure), I am actually working on this right now.
Exciting…have fun.
