As an investor, buyer, or wholesaler, finding a good deal in Real Estate can be time consuming and nearly impossible in a seller’s market, but it’s totally doable. These are a few of the top strategies I use to find the best deals and possibly find some off-market opportunities in real estate. Add me on Snapchat/Instagram: GPStephan

First, you need to see EVERYTHING you can on the market. Everything. You won’t be able to know a good deal if you don’t already know everything else on the market and what it’s selling for. Without a solid foundation of how one home compares to another, you won’t be able to realize a home’s true value.
Next, see homes as soon as they come on the market. You should be getting notified hourly about every new home that comes up or reduces its price. If something comes up that looks interesting, go and see it immediately. If it’s a good deal, which you’ll know by seeing everything else on the market, write an offer immediately.
You should also focus on listings which have been on the market for a long time that people may have forgotten about. Sometimes these listings get overlooked, and sometimes the owner is extremely motivated to sell but won’t want to reduce their price quite yet.
Ignore how the pictures look - sometimes great listings have the worst pictures, and the worst listings have the best pictures. Instead, focus on the location, square footage, condition, and price.
When trying to find a property off market:
Don’t be afraid to go door-to-door. Unfortunately it’s time consuming and many times nothing will pan out, however if you find the one home that will sell at a reasonable price, all of your time spent will be worthwhile.
You can also send letters out to everyone in a particular area asking if they would sell. This can be expensive and time consuming depending on how many you send out, but one deal will pay for itself, plus some.
Finally, looking through past listings which never sold could be a good option. You know they thought of selling at some point, so there’s a higher likelihood they’ll still sell.
With these above options, you’ll have a great chance at finding a good deal - even in a seller’s market. I use these same strategies above and it’s worked very well, both for myself and for my clients.

    I just want to find a good deal on a house for myself, but all these parasitic house flippers are buying up everything, ruining the architectural integrity of homes with gray scale color schemes, which makes you feel like you're stepping into a black and white television, while absurdly inflating the market values.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kronk says:

    So, you concentrate on new listings, but you concentrate on old listings, and you concentrate on seeing every listing on the market? Hmm… This is like a high school presentation where you are just trying to take a tiny bit of info and stretch it out as far as possible.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chakshu Madhok says:

    Hey Graham – if the property is on the market for a while, wouldn't that be a red flag. I get people may have forgotten about it but I thought time frame listing is on the market is a good statistic to decide whether a house is a hot buy or not.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kevin Martin Oceja says:

    Hey Graham! I have a question for ya. Obviously it doesn't affect you now but in the beginning did you find that not having a degree was affecting you negatively when it came to investing in real estate? asking because I'm working on getting my real estate licence and the chapter I'm on is about mortgage lending.
    as always i shhhmashed that like button ofc
