Anyone in New York

Anyone in New York

I was just wondering if there are any investors on here working in New York State. I see everywhere in the book and on the site about getting deals done quick and in x amount of days. Here in upstate NY with my experience in buying our house and friends who have purchased homes in the area deals take alot of time sometimes up to 2 months to close. Is there ways around this or have other people run into the same problems. Also if there are investors in the upstate area that have been investing for sometime and would be willing to talk and share some stories and any advice I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Depends on the type of deal

Hey Hitman,
The deals mentioned on DG are eclectic, and a lot of them don't even involve your own money or financing, so those work pretty swift depending on how extensive the person's buyer list is. Anytime you're working with the bank though, expect 45 to 75 days. My financed deal in Long Island is on day 45 and if I'm lucky it will be closed by end of month, about 60 days total from offer to close.

Banks are slow and have a lot of requirements. But again, a lot of these assignment deals, bird dog agreements, or cash deals that get mentioned here move quickly because the bank is not a factor, which is the appeal of many of the DG strategies. Hope that helps.

Take care,
Chad.

Thanks. Is there anyone

Thanks. Is there anyone investing in upstate NY or around. I would love to hear some stories that people have in the area where I will be working.


Your name may not open many

Your name may not open many doors for you,plus I just went to your profile and there is no reference to where you are located,My name is below if you do a little homework on these threads you may find the answers to your question.


Search

Hey Michael,

If you type in New York in the search box (right under Dean's chin at the top) press enter. When page loads click on advanced search, scroll down to 'user' profile' and it will pull up anyone that has New York listed on their profile page. Then you can try to connect with them if you wish.

Have a great day!
Jen


Comments like yours may not open many doors either

Wow James a simple "I live in Rochester NY" would have been fine or a no reply at all. It was a name given to me years ago, and I do not see how that would make an impact on who works or responds with me. I do not give you a hard time for having a name like James.I was unaware of the fact that you can click on someone's name and find out where they are from, I am new to the site. It was a simple post to see if there is anyone in the upstate area basically not the city.


This is it

Welcome to the DG Family. Michael, it is important that you create your profile. This gives us a chance to know where you are located and to network with each other. You do not have to be specific in your address. God Bless.

Micheal my mention to your

Micheal my mention to your choice of user names was meant as a joke. I see that you found out where I'm from, that was the intent of the second coment. I went to your profile page to see if you were close by so I could offer you some assistance, I still don't know where your located. Good Luck and I'll be watching your progress.


Well thank you. I live in

Well thank you. I live in Utica NY and I will update my profile soon. Again I am new to the site and I have been trying to browse the forums and there is alot out there and alot to take in. I should have started with my profile first but until now I was unaware there even was one. Thanks


There are a couple other

There are a couple other DGers up near you,one is Jan Malek I'm sure he will see where you are and stop by this thread, the other one I don't remember his name off hand but he will show up sooner or later.


Thanks I was also sent a PM

Thanks I was also sent a PM that mentioned Jan Malek. Looking forward to working with all. Setting up my profile now.
