We just hit 600 members in this group — what a milestone! Thought this would be a great chance to re-introduce ourselves and welcome the newer faces. Most of you already know Tim Whitman (because let’s be real, he’s in here more than the admins), but for those who don’t know me yet — I’m Josh. I’ve been in real estate for 21 years, own a mortgage company, flip homes in Southern California, and still take on clients with every real estate need I can help them with. My goal is to not be in the day-to-day trenches, but to provide you guys with those leads so I could do more stuff like this. I started this community because I wish something like this existed when I was coming up — a place where agents could get real advice, support, and opportunities to grow. Whether you’re here to learn about investing, level up your real estate business, or just need a community that actually gets it — you’re in the right spot. Let’s try to get at least 50 members to introduce themselves in the comments — tell us where you’re based, what you specialize in, and what kind of deals you’re looking for. That way we know where to send off-market listings, fix and flip deals, wholesale opportunities, and even team-up chances for buyers, sellers, and investments. This platform is meant to be more than just posts — let’s make it a true community. Looking forward to learning, sharing, and doing deals with all of you

Working right now to organize the classroom tab on this app. I have a ton of resources, scripts, contracts, contacts, etc... that I want to get out to you all for free. Let me know if you want anything in particular. Goal is to make this a real estate community. There is enough for all of us to eat. Too many people have a scarcity mindset. Abundance mindset is the way to go. Help each other out. LETS GO!

The house that I'm trying to purchase from a wholesaler is Zone AE. (I was previously avoiding everything that was in a flood zone.) I spoke to someone that works on flood zoning and they're going to see if they can get it out of the flood zone for me, which apparently costs only a couple hundred dollars. I also called an inspector to see if there are repairs to reduce flood insurance costs. Any other advice for AE flood zones? It's a lower priced home and hoping this wouldn't affect my buyer pool too much. Thoughts?
