FINDING THE “ELUSIVE” MOTIVATED BUYER
In today’s world of real estate investing, there are many different ways to structure deals and make money. One can invest in tax liens and deeds, foreclosures, rental properties, commercial properties, raw land for development—the list goes on. For most investors, the starting point of the investing experience is the basic rehab project: buy a property at a discount, rehab the property, and sell it for a quick profit. For some investors, their first project may be a wholesale deal where the investor contracts to buy a property at a discount and then assigns the right to buy the property to a rehabber. The investor makes a quick profit from an assignment fee, and the rehabber makes his money by buying the property at a discount, rehabbing the property, and selling it for a profit.
