[{"id": "ckwdoli", "text": "Now and then I can see a lot of deals and happening on Real estate properties in Florida and it's surrounding areas.

Another way to find an investment home is via Brokers.  Brokers gravitate towards Buyers who know what they want and will close quickly.  I don't know your background, therefore I don't know how much detail you require.

The way I find and buy property is to talk to people in the industry that have connections to sellers where I want to buy. In short it takes effort to seek out the individuals and businesses that will help you achieve your goals. I prefer to buy unlisted properties but I bought the FL RE through a broker that had the property listed for months.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
