Wholesaling in 2007 www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
2007 Wholesaling • The SELLERS are different: • There are more motivated sellers in the market than I’ve ever seen. Factors: • The slow market • ARMs and interest-only loans coming home to roost • The collapse of the sub-prime finance market • The largest growth is in sellers who are in, or are about to be in, pre-foreclosure www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
2007 Wholesaling • Banks (as sellers) are bigger and bigger players in the market: • MOST “handyman’s specials” in border zones in the MLS are bank-owned! • REOs are “setting the price” in these areas • Banks are becoming much more reasonable about price in these areas www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
What’s Different in 2007--Buyers • The BUYERS are different: • REIA group membership is dropping • Fewer “buy and sell”, more “buy and hold” • Must bring them good deals ***Rental Market is getting really good** Great selling point to your buyers! www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
What’s Different in 2007, Part II • REOs present special challenges to us as wholesalers: • Lenders require “proof of funds” or pre-qual letters to accept offers • Require minimum earnest money • Inspection periods are short • Purchase contracts are non-assignable www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
2007 and Beyond Considerations Deal must be a good deal in the eyes of your buyer May not be a house or area you want to live in—doesn’t matter But….the deal can’t be too ugly Buyers tend to want better deals and better margins in today’s market www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
Bank Owned Properties in 2007—The Real Deal • Find one or more private lenders who can write “pre-qual” letters for you (and let you close, if necessary—we can fund this for you and get you a pre-qual letter) • Build your list of CASH buyers who can act fast • Understand how to fill out the contracts to maximize chances of acceptance • Understand how to use land trusts to avoid double closings www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
Working with Bank Owned Properties • Must speak their language • Must be persistent • Must have proof of Funds www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
More Motivated Sellers Than Ever • Make sure you’re marketing! • Make all of your deals over the phone—don’t be afraid to negotiate HARD • Cherry pick deals • Learn short sales…or partner with someone who knows them • Make sure you’re tracking your leads www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
3 Reasons Why this is a Great time to be a wholesaler • 1.Prices have fallen and most sellers are convinced that prices will not increase any time soon. They are accepting low offers for prices far below the real value. • 2. Many of the “speculators” have dropped out of the market, so there is less competition for the good deals. • 3.Banks and mortgage companies are foreclosing left and right. The more they own, the cheaper they will sell. www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
What Kind of properties can you wholesale? • Single Family Homes—Pretty and Ugly • Lots • Tracts of Land • Multi-Family Homes • Condos • Commercial Properties www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
Where do the properties come from • 1. Your local area • 2. Other Parts of the country Areas I like: Atlanta, Memphis, Detroit, Charlotte, Birmingham, www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
Why Wholesale properties outside of your market? • Diversify • Increase Number of deals • Increase types of deals www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
I know what you’re thinking: • That’s Great Charles, But How do I build a buyers list? www.KimandCharlesPetty.com
