It's the most wonderful time of the year... when it comes to deals! Countless advertisements and solicitations saturate us this time of year and can make determining a good property deal difficult through all the "GREATEST SALE ON EARTH" noise.
If a property advertised interests you, do some research on the seller. In previous postings I provided ways to "google" a property but its also important to reference the property owner to make sure everything is straight.
A few tips:
- Check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints.
- Ask for references from several investors.
- Get the rent rolls and check for variances in rent over the years.
- Verify with research that a property is rented at a reasonable price.
Of course follow your gut! If a deal looks to good to be true, it probably is.
