Locating homes to flip can be a somewhat challenging task. Ever-rising inventory is causing a flood of homes on the market and it can sometimes be difficult to distinguish which homes will make good investment properties. The most important thing to keep in mind is to locate and purchase a property at the lowest possible price. You will want to buy flip homes that are priced as far below current market value as possible.
Two of the best types of properties to locate and purchase are pre foreclosures and wholesale deals. These properties often sell anywhere from 20-50% below market value, savings you can't ignore! However, these two types of properties can be somewhat difficult to locate, which is why we want to introduce you to a site we use to help us locate these properties - MyHouseDeals.com.
This site is a great resource that we use on a frequent basis as they have many tools to benefit from. The first and main reason we use them is to locate investment property to purchase. The best part? These leads are comprised of pre foreclosures and wholesale deals - the type of properties you should be looking for when flipping houses. Most of the time, wholesalers will only look to their buyers list when attempting to unload properties. Unless you know them, you miss out on a lot of those properties. Owners of pre foreclosure homes will try to keep their impending foreclosure under wraps so advertisement on those types of homes are almost non-existent. This site allows sellers to post their properties and allows buyers to view their contact information.
MyHouseDeals.com also offers contact information for real estate professionals that offer a variety of services, such as financing, investing and contracting. If you are unable to flip a home prior to closing, then you'll more than likely need some funds to pay closing costs, which is where you can benefit from the site.
All in all, flipping homes can still be done with the right tools and expertise. Look for a flip house that will give you the most bang for your buck (typically a property with lots of equity) and use all the resources you have.
