Arizona Real Estate Investor Resources

I'm a relatively new real estate agent and am focusing on the needs of the investor. I have done some rehab investing (yes, I have my own power tools and I'm not afraid to use them) over the last several years and know how frustrating and time consuming it can be to find a property that will yield a nice profit or cash flow.  And... we all know, time is money.  Thus, my interest in the investor. I now know where to look, how to look and how to ask the right questions. When I was rehabbing, before I became an agent, I didn't like using the MLS to find property; thinking that if it was a good enough deal, it wouldn't be on the MLS and I didn't want to be paying the extra for someone’s commission. In today's market with all of the foreclosures and the prices of homes at new time lows, it's different now.  Being an agent gives me the advantage of having the MLS at my disposal for finding and tracking these discounted properties. The ability to look up tax records, foreclosures and pull comps are an added bonus.

Our market has become a hot spot for investors from around the world to buy up these proerties.  The competion for these properties has become fierce these last few months and it's not as easy to acquire them.  I have developed a process that allows me to make multiple offers on properties in a timely manner allowing more chances for accepted offers.  Give me a chance to help you build your portfolio.

I still work with a variety of wholesalers, fsbo’s, birddogs, and door knockers to find properties for my clients.  With these types of properties you’ll need to be prepared for various types of acquisition and funding possibilities (ie. Subject to’s, assignments, short sales, carry backs, double closings, equity splits, cash, hard money, etc.). I can help you with this.  You can take a look under the "Educational" button to the left to learn more about this stuff too.

So, to sum it up, I have a few tricks up my sleeves that the ordinary agent wouldn’t know about and I find properties that investors would want to purchase. If I pair up a buyer and a seller for a quick close and they work everything out between themselves and my representation is not needed, I only get paid a referral fee.  Commissions on MLS properties are always paid by the seller.

I would like to offer you automatic emails with MLS listings on “fixer upper”  and "REO" properties and to send you personal email whenever I come across a property that I think you might be interested in outside of the MLS.  Please submit your information and let me know what you're looking for by clicking on the "Contact Me" button to your left and I'll be happy to get started on my search for your property.  If you're looking for just a one-time list of properties, I can send you that or you can look it up yourself under my "Do-It-Yourself MLS Listings" tab.

I've included a few forms and articles that may be helpful for you to have including information on swimming pool barriers, buying from a wholesaler, how to lease with the option to buy, purchase contracts, rental contracts and more.   I think you'll find the "Tips" and "Helpful Resources" pages real time and money savers.  I will continue adding pertinent information to my site on a regular basis.  Please keep checking back.

If I can be of any assistance to you, please don't hesitate to give me a call. I look forward to working with you and hopefully putting together several deals that we can both make some money on.
