Downtowns are full of buildings nobody is selling yet.
We read every county property record to find the few worth buying, before they are listed. A house to flip first. Then a Main Street building to keep. Here is the plan, the leads, and where the money goes.
The plan
Why a flip comes first, why Main Street comes second, who does what, and the next 90 days.
Read the plan →The leads
Real buildings and houses, each with why it fits, what to watch out for, and the next step.
See the leads →The money
Put in your cash, a loan or no loan, and how big a job you would take on. Everything updates.
Run the numbers →Most property lists answer one question: who might sell. That is how a bar with a tired owner ends up at the top of a list for people who would never buy a bar.
This one asks three, in order. Is it a deal we would do? Is the owner likely ready? Can we afford it? A lead has to pass all three before anyone picks up a phone.
Every step is a rule you can read, and every count comes straight from the county's own file.
A fast first win, then the building worth keeping.
Flip one house
Buy a tired house from an owner who wants out, fix it, sell it. The cash comes back with something left over, and two partners learn how they work together on a job small enough to survive a mistake.
Buy one Main Street building
A storefront with apartments upstairs. Fix the storefront and one apartment first, let rent pay for the rest. It is slower, and it is the asset that is still paying years later.
The short list
What public records cannot tell you
The county knows who owns a building, what they paid, what they owe and how many floors it has. It does not know if the roof leaks, if the upstairs is empty, or if the owner will take a call.
- Condition. Nobody has walked any of these.
- Vacancy. The county does not track it. Where we have a source, the lead sheet names it.
- Price. Until an owner names one, every price here is an estimate, and is marked as one.
- Intent. A signal is a reason to call. It is not a yes.
