Wholesaling Houses Tips

June 1st, 2009
This is Terry Wygal, from from http://ExtremeWholesaling.com, and today, I will tell you the top wholesaling houses tips that you should not forget to make sure that any of your wholesaling will succeed.

Wholesaling houses, just like any other success stories, needs some things to be done in perfection. Whatever wholesaling houses strategies and wholesaling houses techniques you have read or heard, there is one thing that you should not forget – all of them are based on simple principles that make up for a successful house wholesaling.

Motivated Seller

If getting the best house in town is surely a big step, if not big steps, ahead of your competitors, then a nice place with an owner that is very willing to sell (aka motivated sellesr) is a very big edge. Motivated sellers are people who wanted to have their houses sold ASAP and would not worry too much about the tag that you place on their house. Of course, they would not sell it for free but they would not also charge it a king’s ransom. These motivated sellers are just the people you need to be able to buy cheap, sell cheap and gain profit. Knowing where to find motivated sellers is like finding a good bargain shop for stuffs that you intend to sell.

Time

One of the key things that you should remember about wholesaling is that you choose it over flipping houses because you intend to make money out of a house that you do not have to spend on anything for maintenance or other fees (such as taxes). Thus, if you intend to gain profit and see it as a very considerable amount considering the investment that you made on it, you should be able to sell the house as soon as you bought it. This is where having a buyer’s list comes in handy, because with a buyers list you will be able to save time looking for prospect house buyers instead of still having to look for them after you buy the house.

Pricing

How you negotiate how much you should buy a house and what you decide on how much you should sell the house is obviously a very big factor in determining whether or not you made profit. Pricing would require a lot of experience or a whole lot of research if you have no experience to rely on. One thing that will help you though would be to know the pricing trend of the kinds of houses that you are selling and the buying trend of the house-buying market.

Buyers List

Having a buyers list is very important because this where you can base who you should sell the house that you bought and how much they are would be willing to pay. Aside from this, the buyers list will also dictate what kind of houses are in trend and what people are buying, thus giving you and idea when you are selecting a house.

These are but the basic things that you need to consider when you are trying to wholesale houses. Making sure that you have all these four in line and included in any wholesaling venture you do would assure you of a higher possibility of success rates in your wholesales.

Wholesaling Houses and Flipping Houses

May 30th, 2009
This is Terry Wygal, from from http://ExtremeWholesaling.com, and today, I will discuss to you the big difference between wholesaling houses and flipping houses and give you enough information as to which of the two you would master.

Many people are into wholesaling houses and flipping houses in the real estate business. However, it is quite contrasting that there are still many people who do not understand the nature of both and how they are different from each other.

What is Wholesaling Houses?

When you try to wholesale houses, what you do is you find a motivated seller and buy the house he is selling at a much lower price than its real value. Motivated sellers are people who intend to sell their house fast and would not spend too much time lobbying for a higher price than the value of the house. These people include those who just had a divorce, experienced death or are people who are just anxious to move to another place.

After having bought a house, you directly find a house buyer who would either flip the house or live in the house. Either way, sell the house for the price that you paid to buy it plus an increase of $10,000 or more depending on how you play it. Just remember that the longer the house stays in your possession the worse it is for you because the more expenses would pile up and the closer you go to a loss.

What is Flipping Houses?

Flipping houses, on the other hand, is quite similar with wholesaling houses but involves a lot of differences. You still buy a house that you intend to sell, but instead of selling it directly, you flip it, thus the term flipping houses. When you say you flip a house or a certain kind of property for that matter, you rehab the house that you bought before you try to open it to the market. In this case, you will be needing some money for the repairs and furnishings that you intend to add. Make sure that when you spend money for the house for rehabilitation, it would add a considerable amount to the price or that it would make the house more saleable.

The same with wholesaling house, house flipping also demands that the whole process of flipping (from the buying to the house rehabbing to the selling of the house) should be done in a controlled duration of time. This means that before the expenses for the house pile up, you should have already sold it.

Wholesaling appeals to people who are in a tight budget and who can not stand the whole process of rehabbing. So long as you don’t run out of prospect house buyers, you will be assured that you will not be in the losing team. Flipping houses, in another sense, is good for people who intend to really make a lot of money out of the house that they bought using the make-over that they do to the house. Just make sure that when you do any of these two, you have the necessary strategies and techniques to help you sell the house in a much higher price because at the end of the day, it is what matters most in wholesaling house and flipping houses.

Things to Remember When Wholesaling Houses

May 26th, 2009
This is Terry Wygal, from from http://ExtremeWholesaling.com, and today, I wil discuss to you the things that matters most when you are wholesaling houses. It is not enough that you found a motivated seller who is willing to sell his house at a much cheaper price. There are the still things that you should remember to make your house wholesaling a success.

One thing that you should remember is that when you try to do house wholesaling, time is very important. The cliche time is gold very much applies when you try to wholesale a house. Why? When you buy real estate properties, you just do not have to pay for the price for the property that you bought. There are still corresponding expesnses that you have to be mindful about. So, before the other expenses come in the picture, you should have already sold the house that you bought as to limit the expenses to just the money that you spend for the price of the house. So, if it is possible, the moment you buy a house, you sell the house fast. To sell houses quickly does not violate any rule in the wholesaling book, in fact, it will save you from a wholesaling catastrophe waiting to happen.

Since selling houses fast is very important, what you need to have is a buyer or prospect buyers. That is whyit is a must that you have a buyers list on hand. In fact, a buyer’s list does not just come in handy when you already have a house to sell. It can also help you in choosing a house to buy. The people in a real estate scene in a certain community would most liekly know each other – the wholesalers, the flippers, among others. These people would most likely be in your list and knowing the trend of house buyers (the kind of houses that they prefer) would help you in choosing what kind of house to wholesale. This in turn would make the buying less tedious (not necessarily easier) because knowing that you have bought the house with a specific target buyers group in mind would more or less assure you of a quick sell.

Lastly, you should be aware of the trend of the market. This will guide you if it is a good time to do some wholesaling and it will also help you have a benchmark on how low or high you should price. The market trend is especially helpful for people who have not been in the wholesaling business for a long time. Pricing needs experience, and in the absence of experience, what is being done by many would mostly be your best chance of hitting the right house prices.

Wholesaling houses is all about timing, going for a quick sell and knowing the present happenings in the market. There are of course other more complicated technique and strategies in wholesaling houses that veterans of the trade have been using, but for beginners who have no experience at all in buying houses for profit, this is definitely a good start.

How To Wholesale Houses: The Basics

April 23rd, 2009

Learning how to wholesale houses is not an easy feat, but a basic understanding of the what’s and how’s would give you a good kick. Wholesaling houses is usually preferred by people who do not want too much fuss in selling houses – that is, unlike house flipping where you have to fix the house before you sell it, wholesaling saves you the trouble of remodeling expenses and just go directly to the sell.

As easy as it may sound, the catch here is how does one purchase something and sell it right away and profit from it when nothing is done to make what is being sold very competitive in the market? To understand how wholesaling houses works, here are some of the things that happens in house wholesaling.

One – You find a motivated seller (a.k.a somebody who is so willing to let go of their house and would agree to have the house sold for a much lesser price). Let’s say, the owner is relocating and wants to dispose of the old house but got no time to do it. So here you come in and offer to buy the house. Originally, the house can be sold in the market for $150,000. However, you offer to buy it for $70,000 dollars. The owner might try to negotiate for a much bigger price. It’s okay as long as you do not make it too much that you can’t sell it any more to somebody else and that the house is not too much in a bad condition.

Two – Now, you got a $150,000 house that you bough for $70, 000. You have something to sell, the next thing that you need is somebody interested to buy it. In this case, you could sell the house for $80,000. A lot of prospect buyers would be very interested to get their hands on this property, even if they have to do some minor repairs to it.

Three – When you do this wholesaling houses, be very particular with the the duration between the buy and the sell. Do not keep the property too long or you will end up spending for it. The best way to do this, if you can, is to be able to do the buy and sell in a margin of hours or a day. In this way you will save yourself the trouble of having to worry spending on what you thought to be of a good, expense-free investment and be able to earn much in a course of one day.

There are still more tricks of the trade that you need to learn about wholesaling houses but these simple 1-2-3 how to’s can help you get started.
