We are now in a unique real estate market with conditions that require the involvement of savvy real estate investors.

So why are real estate investors in such high demand again? If buyers are needed; where’s the exit and how can the best deals be found?
The Desperate Need for Buyers
Real estate investors, Realtors and sellers of all types are crying out for help due to “buyers falling out.”
According to a Bloomberg report, Fidelity National Title is reporting issues due to the government shutdown. The ‘slimdown,’ as it has been called, is derailing many others’ deals for a variety of reasons. Many government workers are scared that they will not be paid. Others are still fearful for their jobs and have allowed sensational media headlines to scare them. On top of this, of course, is an influx of new investors that have neglected to supplement their education before entering into the field. As a result, mortgage underwriting remains tough and a lot of deals have not been carried out. Buyers are becoming desperate to find savvy investors that can help their situation.
This is leading to a large number of transactions going south in the process. Investors looking for deals, and that are capable of acting fast, may see this as an opportunity. with the right skill-set, an investor can capitalize on this situation.
The Flip-Side

They need to cut deals and they need it done today. Their speed of implementation is to keep their plans on track, avoid foreclosure or to ensure agents get their commissions as expected. So jump in, negotiate your terms, solve the need and crank up your own income in the process.
