I am looking for buyers in South Carolina. If you are a buyer or know of a buyer, please leave me a note on this blog.

Roy, where do I find buyers? As one of Dean's coaches this is a question I am often asked. As long as you are flipping properties you will be needing buyers. Knowing where to look and who to talk to can often lead to tremendous success.

First of all, we need to let those around us know that we BUY and SELL real estate. We need to educate them on the benefits and returns of real estate investing. Does this mean be pushy? No, but we do let them know what we are doing and what real estate has done for us.

Do not be afraid to ask if someone would be interested in real estate. Believe it or not, the vast majority of people recognize that real estate is a great place to have their investment dollars. They often just do not know how to get there.

I have recently put my 1st assignment deal together. Two houses on the same lot, both in good shape and a garage that holds two cars. I put everything under a contract with the thoughts of assigning the deal to an investor. If someone puts $12K into it, the property could be worth about $70K. Both would rent for $550-$600 a month.

I started advertising it and the owners found out and are a little upset that I am trying to resell their property without 1st buying it. When they signed the contract for sale, I explained everything I would be doing, but now that it is happening, they don't care for it. I was very transparent and upfront...I don't want to lose this good deal....any advice out there?

One of the things I often hear from students is that their agent keeps bringing properties that the student does not have an interest in. The agent often brings a "great" deal, but it does not meet the needs of the student.

I teach students that they must commuicate effectively and clearly with their agents. The agent must fully realize and understand exactly what we are looking for. Let them know why we are looking for a certain type of property.

Our purpose is not to be disrespectful to the agent. We want him/her to make money. Help them understand that they WILL make money if they help us find the right properties.

Good Luck.
