Flipping properties can be a lucrative business if you know how to find the right properties at the right price. In South Carolina, there are plenty of opportunities to flip properties, but you need to know where to look. Here are some tips on how to find properties to flip in South Carolina.

  1. Check Online Listings: The first step in finding properties to flip is to check online listings. Websites like Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com offer listings of properties for sale in South Carolina. You can filter your search by price, location, and other criteria to find properties that fit your budget and requirements.
  2. Attend Auctions: Another way to find properties to flip is to attend auctions. In South Carolina, there are public auctions where foreclosed properties are sold. You can find these auctions by checking the local newspapers or by contacting the county clerk’s office.
  3. Contact Wholesalers: Wholesalers are individuals or companies that specialize in finding properties and selling them to investors at a discount. They often have access to properties that are not listed on the MLS or other public platforms. You can find wholesalers by searching online or by attending local real estate events.
  4. Drive Around: Sometimes, the best way to find properties to flip is to drive around and look for distressed properties. You can identify these properties by looking for signs of neglect, such as overgrown lawns, boarded-up windows, or damaged roofs. Once you’ve identified a potential property, you can contact the owner and inquire about its sale.
  5. Network with Other Investors: Networking with other investors can help you find properties to flip. You can join local real estate groups, attend investor meetups, or connect with other investors on social media. By building relationships with other investors, you can gain access to off-market properties and learn about new opportunities.

In conclusion, finding properties to flip in South Carolina requires a combination of online research, attending auctions, contacting wholesalers, driving around, and networking with other investors. By using these strategies, you can find properties that have the potential for a profitable flip. Remember to do your due diligence, research the local market, and have a solid business plan before making any investment decisions. Good luck!

The Surprising Profile of the Real Estate Investor

The Surprising Profile of the Real Estate Investor | MyKCM

Over 10% of all residential homes are purchased by investors, and that number continues to rise. Who are these investors? Well lets explore the surprising profile of the real estate investor.

Many have speculated that the large institutional conglomerates such as Blackstone, American Homes 4 Rent, and Colony Starwood dominate investor purchases. However, a special report on investor home buying by CoreLogic, Don’t Call it a Comeback: Housing Investors Have Been Here for Years, shows this is not the case.

Ralph McLaughlin, CoreLogic’s Deputy Chief Economist and author of the report, explained his findings at the recent National Association of Real Estate Editors conference in Austin:

“Investor buying activity in the U.S. is at record highs. And our records go back confidently, about 20 years…

What’s going on and why? Well, it turns out, it’s not the big institutional guys that are leading the increase in home buying. It’s actually the smaller guys. It’s those that have bought between one and ten properties over this 20-year period, they’re the ones that are really leading the increase in investor home buying.”

Here is the breakdown of the percentage of purchasers by type of investor over the last six years according to the report:The Surprising Profile of the Real Estate Investor | MyKCMAs the graph shows, the percentage of “Mom & Pop” investors is currently dominating the number of homes purchased by investors, as the percentage of homes purchased by both professional and institutional investors is falling.

Bottom Line

Most houses purchased by an investor are bought by small investors looking to diversify their financial portfolio by adding a real estate component. If you are investing in real estate as either a landlord or someone who fixes-up and flips the house, let’s chat about the ways you can build or liquidate your current portfolio of properties.
