About 10 days in and noticing this Most deals aren’t bad… they’re just not real Had one this week: - seller sounded motivated - numbers looked decent But → no real buyer interest at that price Deal died fast Feels like a lot of deals fall apart - seller isn’t fully committed - numbers aren’t tight - buyer isn’t actually there Everything looks close, nothing is locked What do you guys check first to make sure a deal is actually real?
@Angelo Davato Makes sense, I’ve been seeing that too The hard part isn’t finding people who say they buy It’s finding buyers who actually close, give clear numbers, and don’t just shop the deal around When you’re calling recent cash buyers, what questions do you ask to separate real buyers from fake ones?
@Javari Neal That’s real — most “might sell” leads just don’t have a reason to move yet Easiest way I’ve found is asking what happens if it’s still unsolved in 30 days if there’s no clear consequence, there’s usually no deal Same on the buyer side interest is easy, but recent closers are the only ones that actually perform when it matters
Not blasting deals, keeping everything tight and pre-matched so it actually moves If you’re actively buying in Houston, drop your real buy box: - Areas you’re actually closing in - ARV range - All-in number that’s an easy yes - Rehab level (light / medium / heavy) - Close timeline Only looking to work with buyers who can move when something fits
Looking to connect with people who have buyers in Houston If you’ve got active buyers, drop: • what areas they like • price range • type of deals Open to working together if it makes sense
