AN: Request from Tumblr: Can I request a fic where the main girl is used to dealing with indecisive and small, in both body and mind, men and when she meets M'Baku who wants to court her she's just blown away by his big personality and size? Just completely enamored by his build and his presence.

Originally written in 2019 and somehow this still works LMAO

Desiree was tired. Once again, she'd had to walk out of a date with another man who found her intelligence, her ideals, her body to be too big to handle. In order to try to handle her, he'd begun talking shit. 

"You know you'll never get a man acting like that," Christ or Craig or whatever the fuck his name was said.

"I'm sorry? Acting like what?" Desiree was playing dumb. Let this nigga dig his own hole.

Carlos couldn't let the moment to 'educate' her pass. He sat up in his seat, leaning forward eagerly.  "You act too smart and too busy. I mean, I don't want a woman who knows more than I do or who makes more than I do. I'm the man so I'm supposed to provide for you. And what you know so much about politics for anyways? I don't even see the point in voting. I'm gonna be fine irregardless."

Desiree made note that irregardless was being used incorrectly and took a sip of her water. They hadn't even ordered yet.

"And I need a woman who's all about me and what I have going on anyways."

"I'm sorry what is it you do?"  

"I'm a real estate agent but I work at Target too."

"Do you have your realtor's license?"

"Well...no. But I'm working on it."

"So you work at Target." Desiree rolled her eyes discreetly. But she was supposed to quit her job as the pricing manager of a major freight and logistics company to make him feel better about himself? She took another sip of water. 

"Yeah I can get you a discount on jeans and pants and stuff." Desiree thought if the discount at Target would be worth it but then decided she'd rather pay full price at Target everyday for the rest of her life than to deal with his attitude. "You could lose some weight first and then I'll help you get some new Target clothes."

"Excuse me?" Her tone was icy; any other man with sense would've immediately backtracked.

Cory wasn't that smart.

"Yeah you could lose like 100 pounds. I don't need a fat girl who's gonna crush me while I'm doing it."

'Doing it.' Yeah she was done.

Desiree took another sip of water before lighting into this sorry excuse for a person. "Why would you think I'd want to fuck you? You're a pathetic man intimidated by the success of a black woman because you have none of your own. Quite frankly, you're not up to my standards and I pity the woman who will settle and out up with your misogynistic crap."

Is what she wanted to say. But there are so many women who end up getting killed after rejecting or embarrassing a man. So instead she got up and walked away.

Desiree sat at the bar of a hotel down the the block. She didn't want to go home and deal with her sister, who kept setting her up with these losers. Lexi had it in her head that Desiree should be out living her life, sleeping around and having fun before settling down and having two kids, just like she did. But Desiree had no desire to settle for a man just for sex and an occasional outing. She wanted to be swept off her feet by a secure man, who didn't demand her submission but willingly accepted. Who was worthy of being submitted to. 

She was the youngest pricing manager at her big time logistics company. She was the final decision maker on several sales approving millions of dollars in revenue a year. She owned her own home, drove a car she bought herself, and had good friends that supported her. So what she hadn't had a relationship since high school? She had all the other aspects that made up a great full life. The man would come later. 

"Is this seat taken?" A deep voice rumbled next to her and Desiree turned to look at the owner. 

Good God she thought. This man is gorgeous. He was broad shouldered, bulging muscles showing through the button up and suit jacket her was wearing. He'd unbuttoned the first two buttons, showing his throat and Desiree had to fight the urge to nuzzle the skin there. Not that she'd be able to reach. At five foot four and 220 pounds, he dwarfed her. He was taller than she was sitting on a bar stool. Desiree wanted to be picked up by this bear of a man, seated on his lap, wrapped in his arms...

A throat clearing shook her from her thoughts. She'd been staring. Her face felt hot with embarrassment. When she glanced back at him, she saw a smirk on his face and she ducked her head gesturing to the seat to her right. 

He signaled for the bartender and Desiree felt like a creep watching thick fingers tap on the bar. She noticed his nails were clean but the hands had the calluses of a man used to manual labor and—

No ring. He heart leapt at the thought that he wasn't taken but she tried to calm herself. In her experience, not having a ring didn't mean anything except that he wasn't wearing one. 

"You make a habit of staring at stranger?" His voice once again rang through her ears, his accent just like the rest of him: thick. 

Desiree met amused eyes. "Only if the stranger is interesting enough to catch my eye." His eyes darkened and Desiree bit her lip at her boldness. She was not like this normally. The bartender setting down his drink saved her from the power of his gaze. 

"I'm M'Baku," he said holding out a hand. 

"Desiree." The way M'Baku said her name back to her made he want to make him say it all night. 

"Are you a guest at the hotel?"

Desiree felt her frustration return at the reminder of what her night had been like so far. "No. I ducked in here to get away from a bad date." 

M'Baku signaled to the bartender again to bring her another drink. "Why don't you tell me about it." 

————————

M'Baku had seen the beautiful Desiree while she was at dinner. He'd been with T'Challa, Erik, and some American business men hoping to wine and dine them into working out a deal. M'Baku wasn't interested, preferring to look around the fancy restaurant he could tell wouldn't serve enough food. 

And something had caught his attention. 

Glory to Hannuman, he thought, looking at the woman. She was elegant looking, natural hair a cloud around her face, delicate shoulders exposed in an off the shoulder top tucked into a shimmery skirt. The skirt reflected blue in the lights of the chandelier and highlighted wide hips and a round behind. She was gorgeous and M'Baku spent many moments staring at her. 

His eyes slid over to the person with her. Her dinner companion was a small man. Not just in stature, but M'Baku could tell that he was small in mind as well. His body language towards the woman in front of him was dismissive and distant. M'Baku wanted to snatch the man up by the collar and give him a shake before whisking the woman away. What he wouldn't give to have such a woman dress up for him. Or undress. 

He could see that the woman was annoyed with the man who was now eagerly talking her ear off. Before he could make the decision to rescue her from her date, she got up, gathered her things and walked out. He heard the man complain about her but he was a harmless punk who didn't do anything. M'Baku slumped and tried to listen to the schmoozing going around him. He'd missed his opportunity. 

When he'd entered the hotel, he caught the glimmer of a sequined skirt out the corner of his eye. He didn't explain himself to T'Challa or Erik, walking towards Desiree without a backwards glance. He wouldn't let another opportunity pass him by. 

Now he was sitting, listening to Desiree lament the details of her short lived date. She was more beautiful up close, her hand gestures wild and her hair moved as she did. M'Baku watched as her lips moved; he was enamored. 

"Well his loss is my gain," M'Baku said sliding him arm across the back of her chair. He was testing the waters; it was clear she was attracted to him but enough to spend the night together? Enough to possibly spend their lives? M'Baku was all in already. 

Desiree leaned into him. "My night has definitely turned around." She had a sexy smirk on her face.

M'Baku moves in to whisper in her ear. "Would you like to make the night better?" Her eyes smoldered. It was a go

————————

Desire was in the elevator, standing across from M'Baku, on the way to the top floor, panicking on the inside. She was a modern, 21st century woman; she'd had her fair share of sexual experiences but never so soon after meeting someone. She didn't think of it as a one night stand though; she could tell that he was serious. He'd listened to her and wanted to make her night better. Desiree was someone who went off of vibes with a person and she felt safe with M'Baku, as she'd known him for a longer time than just the night. Plus even if it was only a one night thing, Desiree knew it'd be the best night of her life. 

She pushed off the wall to the elevator to approach M'Baku. His eyes were dark as he watched her. When she was chest to chest with him, she pressed up to her toes. He bent his head and met her halfway, pressing soft, full lips to her own. His beard tickled her chin and she slipped her tongue in his mouth. His hands ran down the length of her spine, over her hips, to curve to her ass and squeezed. Desiree moaned into his mouth and M'Baku pulled away to press kisses to her forehead, her cheeks, and her neck, suckling in a way that had Desiree mewling. 

The ding of the elevator wrenched them away from each other. Desiree smiles at him bashfully and M'Baku answered with a grin of his own. He held out a hand and she placed hers in his. They walked in silence, hand in had to his room. They were really going to do this. Desiree couldn't wait. 

M'Baku fishes the key out of his pocket and opened the door for her. Desiree steppes into the suite. It was extremely fancy. She could tell from his clothing that this man wasn't like anything she'd dealt with before, but his hotel reiterated this. She took in the neatness, clothes hung in the closet behind glass doors and a fur throw was at the end of the bed. Desiree ran her hand through the fur before turned back to M'Baku. 

He was watching her move around his space. The air between them was thick with anticipation of what was to come. They both knew what the other wanted; it was just a matter of who would make the first move. 

It was M'Baku this time. He slowly crossed the room, shrugging off his dinner jacket. The white button up was tight across his chest and his muscles rippled with each step. He wrapped thick arms around her waist before lowering his head and kissing her again. It was the same dance in the elevator, lips sliding along, tongues delving into one another's mouths. M'Baku nipped at her lips, tugging at the skin of her lower lip. Desiree wrapped her arms around his neck. Sliding his hands to her thighs he hoisted her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist. If she wasn't in love before, she was now; this was some movie shit. She'd never thought she'd meet a man who could handle her in this way. 

M'Baku sat on the bed before lying back, Desiree straddling his hips. She felt his erection press into her core and wound her waist to grind down on him. She reached to begin unbuttoning his shirt, caressing his skin as she went. He moved to help her undress, stroking her belly and putting calloused hands on her breasts. He pulled her nipples through her bras d he felt her grind down on him harder. 

They rushed to get the other's clothes off, getting distracted as more skin exposed and pressing kisses to each other. When Desiree saw M'Baku's erection she felt faint. He was big everywhere. His fingers slipped into her panties and her played with her swollen clit before going lower to finder her already slippery. Desiree's eyes closed against the sensation. His fingers were thick playing with her, stretching her wide. 

"Condoms?" 

"I don't have any. Didn't plan this." M'Baku's rough voice sounded in her ear as he kept fingering her. 

"I'm clean..." 

"So am I." 

"You can pull out." M'Baku groaned and Desiree was tossed on her back. 

————————

M'Baku felt wild with a need he had t felt in a long time. This woman was strong his blood on fire underneath his skin. She was allowing him to kiss and caress her but also go inside and bring them both pleasure. He kissed her as he removed the rest of her clothes. 

Desiree's dark nipples were puckered for his pleasure and ducked his head to suckled. Her moans were music to ears as he alternated between both, plucking with his fingers at the other. He leaned back to grip his dick, the head leaking already. He was hard and ready. He tapped the head on her clit after a few times before going in as slow as he could. 

M'Baku felt her stiffen up. He did his best to keep still but she was warm and wet and tight. He wasn't even halfway in and he felt like he would burst already. "Are you okay?" 

"Yeah..."She was panting. "Just go slow." M'Baku pulled out and pushed back in further. He heard her make a boise that had him dig in her deeper. His mouth fit over hers as he moved his hips, his dick sliding against her slowly, pulling on her clit. 

"Baku," she cried out. She was gushing over him and he kept slipping and sliding deeper until he was all the way in. They were both panting while M'Baku wined his hips into her. 

"What is it baby? What do you need?"

"That's it keep going like that. You got me so wet." She was winding her hips back on him, setting a new pace and M'Baku changed his stroke to keep up. His head was full of her. What was she doing to him 

A deep groan wretched it's way out of his throat. Her pussy was gripping him. "Shiiiit...oh shiiiiiittt." Desiree wrapped her legs around his waist and bucking into him. He looked down to where they were joined and she was creaming, painting his dick white. The heavy sounds of skin slapping and Desiree calling him daddy was fading away to a ringing noise in his ear. He needed to pullout before he came. 

"Come on Desiree. Cum for me." He kept dragging his dick thrusting hard. He felt her squeeze around him, gripping him almost painfully. She cried out loudly gripping his arms and dragging her nails down his bicep. The pain mixed with the overwhelming pleasure had him scrambling to pull out. He drenched her clit and folds with his cum, his orgasm longer and stronger than he'd ever experienced. He had a brief thought of cumming inside her before brushing it away. Now that he'd found her. He had no intention of letting her go. There'd be other opportunities. 

He looked at Desiree. She had a blissful look on her face and was laying boneless with glassy eyes. He'd fucked her well. He rolled over to the side of the bed and struggled to get to his feet. She'd fucked him just as good, his legs were shaking. He came back with a warm, wet rag to clean up the mess they'd made. When he was finished, he went back into bed and pulled Desire into his arms, navigating around the wet spot they'd left. Desiree was asleep, small puffs of breath tickling his chest. M'Baku was the epitome of satisfaction. He would wake her up in a few hours for another round but he was content to watch her, the woman he wanted in his future.

(I'm ThePlayfulFairy on ao3)

PEZ MY BELOVED

thanks for the excuse to write some more of him, with bonus Henry friendship because i love that too.

read the rest of the ficlets here

❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙

4:04pm, the brownstone

Now

“Henry, I’ve found it. I’m sending you the address right now, so get your royal backside in gear and get here as soon as bloody possible.”

Pez sends the voice note with a distracted tap, not taking his eyes off the facade of the building in front of him.

Then

“What do you think about me helping out more with the shelters?” Henry’s wringing his hands—not playing with the signet ring as usual, although Pez has his own private suspicions about where that particular heirloom fidget toy has gone—which means he’s nervous.

“You’re already donating every cent you can get away with, Hazza—”

“I mean— What if I were more hands on?”

The lightbulb goes off in Pez’s head. “The New York shelter. You want to move to The States.”

Henry ducks his head with a blush. “It would be a good way to give back more immediately than donating could ever be.”

“And you want to be closer to your strumpet.”

Henry blushes again, but doesn’t deny it. “It would be enough to be in the same time zone more than a few times a year.”

Pez pulls his best friend in for a fierce hug. “Then let’s make it happen, babes. The Brooklyn location will need a Director once it’s done being renovated.”

Now

A sleek SUV with blacked-out windows pulls up to the curb where Pez is waiting. He bounces on his heels while the PPO’s do a sweep of the building. When they return with the all-clear, Pez bounds forward to haul Henry out of the car.

“See? Isn’t it bloody perfect? The whole building is up for sale—not on the general market, my realtor tipped me off that the current owner is looking to move out of the city.”

“Pez…” Henry’s speechless, gazing up at the perfectly maintained brickwork and welcoming front stoop nestled among the rest of the brownstones on the block.

Then

Hazza: PEZ PEZ I GOT PERMISSION DISGRUNTLED, BACKED INTO A CORNER, RELUCTANT PERMISSION BUT PERMISSION NONETHELESS I’M ALLOWED TO MOVE TO NEW YORK

Auntie Pezza: [excited.gif] [muchexcite.pic] [sqealing_charlotte.gif] HEN YOU BEAUTIFUL BEAN SPROUT YOU’RE EVEN MULTIPLE TEXTING IN ALL CAPS I’M SO BLOODY PROUD

Hazza: The situation did seem to call for it. I guess Alex has been rubbing off on me.

Auntie Pezza: HENRY I’M—

Hazza: Wait.

Auntie Pezza: I’M SURE HE IS 

Hazza: Don’t. I beg you to not.

Auntie Pezza: IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE

Hazza: I really should know better by now.

Auntie Pezza: 🍆💦🍆💦🍆💦 You really should.

But seriously you should send me whatever draconian security measures your new abode will have to accommodate and i’ll get someone looking asap

Now

Pez escorts Henry up the steps and into the brownstone with unrestrained glee, delighting at the awe and dawning excitement on Henry’s face as he looks around.

Each room they pass through is well taken care of, and clearly well-loved. Nothing is pristine; doorways and floors and furnishings bear the hallmarks of age and growing children. There’s heaps of windows letting in natural light, catching the edge of Henry’s smile as he drags his fingers along countertops and railings. Henry doesn’t interrupt Pez’s monologue about the specifics as they climb the stairs to the top floor, content to listen as Pez rambles on about bedroom size and how long it's been since the bathrooms were updated. He doesn’t speak at all, in fact, until they get to the main suite.

“Oh,” Henry gasps, staring at the bay window overlooking the street. Pez watches him move toward it as if drawn by magnets, one hand already reaching out to stroke the window frame reverently. Pez congratulates himself—he knew Henry would love the rest of the house, but that the window would sell him completely.

“I’ll take it,” Henry says, resolute. He’s sat on the cushion in the window now, looking down at the people bustling on the sidewalk below. He looks at home there, like the house was designed with this moment in mind.

“I’ll get my realtor on it,” Pez says, already texting furiously. “And I know a few contractors from the shelter that could do the security updates the Crown will insist on and—”

“Pez.”

“Hmm?” He pauses and looks up at his best friend at the sound of his name.

“Thank you.”

Pez crosses the room, pulls Henry up and into a tight hug. “It’s my genuine pleasure, Henry.” He squeezes a little tighter before pulling back, smirking. “Reckon Alex will cry when you tell him?”

Maximizing Your Profit: A Comprehensive Guide to Selling Land for Cash

Selling land for cash is an attractive option for property owners who want to expedite the sale process, avoid lengthy negotiations, and secure a lump sum payment. Unlike traditional real estate transactions involving homes or commercial buildings, selling land comes with unique challenges and opportunities. Whether you own vacant plots, farmland, or recreational property, understanding the intricacies of selling land for cash is crucial to ensure you maximize your profit and minimize risks. This guide will walk you through the essential steps, key considerations, and benefits of, as well as offer insight into market dynamics, finding buyers, and avoiding common pitfalls. From understanding the paperwork involved to knowing how to market your land effectively, being well-prepared can lead to a smooth and profitable transaction.

The Benefits of Selling Land for Cash: Why It’s a Smart Choice?

There are several advantages to selling land for cash that make it a smart choice for many property owners. One of the primary benefits is the speed of the transaction. Cash sales typically proceed much faster than those involving financing, as they eliminate the need for buyer mortgage approvals, appraisals, or loan contingencies. This expedites the closing process, allowing the seller to receive payment quickly. For those looking to liquidate assets for other investments or personal needs, selling land for cash offers immediate liquidity, making it an attractive option for individuals in need of quick financial flexibility. Another significant benefit is the reduced likelihood of the sale falling through. Since cash buyers do not need to secure a loan, there’s less risk of last-minute financing issues that could derail the transaction.

Essential Steps for a Smooth Transaction When Selling Land for Cash

To ensure a smooth and successful transaction when selling land for cash, there are several essential steps that sellers should follow. The first step is conducting a thorough assessment of your land’s value. It’s important to research comparable land sales in the area and possibly seek an appraisal to determine a fair asking price. Overpricing or underpricing your land can deter buyers or result in a loss of potential profit, so getting this right is critical. Once the value is determined, preparing the land for sale is the next step. This includes gathering all necessary documentation, such as the deed, tax information, survey reports, and any relevant zoning or environmental regulations. Having this information readily available not only speeds up the process but also reassures potential buyers of the land’s legitimacy and condition. Marketing the property effectively is another crucial step. Listing the land on popular real estate platforms, engaging with local realtors, and utilizing signage can help attract cash buyers.

Understanding the Market: Key Factors Affecting Selling Land for Cash

The real estate market, particularly for land, can be influenced by several factors that sellers need to be aware of when selling land for cash. Market conditions, including supply and demand, play a significant role in determining how quickly a property will sell and at what price. For instance, if there’s a high demand for land in a particular area due to population growth or economic development, sellers may find that they can command a higher price. Conversely, in a saturated market with more land available than buyers, it may take longer to sell, and sellers may need to adjust their pricing expectations. The location of the land is another critical factor. Proximity to cities, infrastructure, utilities, and amenities can greatly affect the desirability and value of the land. Properties that are easily accessible and near development projects are often more appealing to buyers, while remote or undeveloped land may require more marketing effort.

How to Find Reliable Buyers When Selling Land for Cash?

Finding reliable cash buyers when selling land requires a combination of marketing strategies, networking, and due diligence. One of the most effective ways to attract serious cash buyers is by listing your land on reputable real estate platforms that specialize in land sales. Websites like Zillow, LandWatch, and Realtor.com offer a wide audience and tools to showcase your property effectively. Providing high-quality images, detailed descriptions, and information about the land’s potential uses can significantly increase interest. Another strategy is to network with local real estate agents and land brokers who may have clients looking for land investments.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Selling Land for Cash

Selling land for cash can be a straightforward process, but several common mistakes can derail the transaction or result in financial loss. One of the most frequent mistakes is overpricing or underpricing the land. While sellers naturally want to maximize their profit, pricing the land too high can deter potential buyers, especially in a competitive market. On the other hand, pricing it too low may lead to missed opportunities for a higher return. Conducting proper market research and seeking professional appraisals can help avoid this pitfall. Another mistake is neglecting to prepare the land for sale. This includes not gathering the necessary documentation or failing to disclose important information about the property.

The Role of Paperwork in Selling Land for Cash: What You Need to Know?

While selling land for cash can simplify the transaction process, proper paperwork is still essential to ensure a legal and secure sale. The most critical document in any land sale is the deed, which proves ownership and must be transferred to the buyer upon completion of the sale. Sellers need to ensure that the deed is clear of any liens or encumbrances that could complicate the transaction. Title searches are often conducted to verify the land’s legal status and ensure there are no claims against it. Another important document is the purchase agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the sale, including the sale price, payment schedule, and any contingencies. This contract protects both the buyer and seller by clarifying the responsibilities of each party.

The Pros and Cons of Selling Land for Cash: A Detailed Analysis

Selling land for cash comes with its pros and cons that sellers should carefully consider. One of the biggest advantages is the speed of the transaction. Cash sales tend to close much faster than those involving financing, which can take weeks or even months to complete. For sellers in need of quick liquidity, this is a significant benefit. Cash sales also typically involve fewer contingencies and less paperwork, reducing the complexity of the transaction. Additionally, cash buyers are often more motivated to close the deal quickly, which can provide peace of mind for sellers. However, there are some potential downsides to selling land for cash. For one, cash buyers may expect a discount in exchange for the speed and simplicity of the sale.

Conclusion

Selling land for cash can be a highly profitable and efficient way to liquidate property, provided that the process is managed carefully. Understanding the market, pricing the land correctly, finding reliable buyers, and avoiding common mistakes are all crucial elements to a successful transaction. While cash sales offer the benefit of speed and simplicity, sellers should still be diligent in their paperwork and vetting of potential buyers to ensure a smooth and legally sound sale. By following best practices and being aware of the key factors affecting land sales, property owners can maximize their profits and achieve a successful outcome.

So the plan is for my parents to eventually sell the house I'm renting from them to me once the value of the "sale" -

(using that term loosely XD basically theyre just having the mortgage put in my name w/a gift equity - something something yadda yadda they get money i get the mortgage and i don't have to scrounge up and down payment)

- can pay off the house they bought to retire in.

Now i don't intend to stay in this house much more than five more years, but i want to enjoy it while I have it. So i have a living room painted rose pink, a hall painted soft dark blue, two paneled rooms, a parchment gold and royal blue painted bathroom with blue and white swirling linoleum, and rusty red painted "cowboy" guest room that I'm gonna pant the sliding closet doors to a sunset in the desert mural with silhouettes of cowboys against the light of the canyon, and then the project for this summer is turn the kitchen yellow and black and white honey bee themed.

When it comes time to sell it, i KNOW the realtor is gonna suggest painting it.

I am going to tell them straight up unequivocally NO.

If they won't list it that way, I'll figure out how to fucking sell it myself.

It's not about not wanting to put in the work to repaint. It's about the fact that i looooaaattthhheee neutral and beige and minimalist culture people to such staggering degree that i WILL. NOT. Sell my house to someone who plans to do that with it. I don't care if the next owner paints the rooms, and long as they paint them a COLOR.

I know selling it means it doesn't matter what i want with the house anymore, it's not MY house at that point and i genuinely DONT care about anything else they want to do to it. I just REFUSE to help perpetuate this fucking yuppie capitalist cultural shift.

Real Estate Wholesaling

Real estate wholesaling is a short-term investing strategy used by some investors to generate quick cash and potentially large profits over a short timeframe.

Real estate wholesalers specialize in finding distressed off-market properties at discounted prices from owners, and then contract with them to take them off their hands at a reduced cost in return for fees from investors.

Find a Property

Real estate wholesaling is a type of real estate investing that involves finding distressed properties, reaching an agreement with their homeowner and selling them without actually owning the property yourself - charging wholesale fees between 5- 10% of its sale price for doing so.

If you're seeking homes to wholesale, the first step should be driving through neighborhoods and noting properties that require repairs. This will give you an idea of what is happening within the community as well as an understanding of how many properties may be for sale in it.

Direct mail can also be an excellent way to contact homeowners interested in selling their home, as this method helps identify motivated sellers willing to sell at an economical price.

Negotiate a Price

As part of wholesaling, negotiations with sellers on price are vitally important to your process.

Idealistically, your goal should be to acquire property at a reduced price and sell it later for a profit. Depending on the market and situation, this may involve seeking homes listed below market value with extensive repairs necessary, or those facing foreclosure or distress as potential opportunities.

To be successful at wholesaling, you must possess strong negotiation skills and a comprehensive knowledge of your local real estate market. Furthermore, you should familiarize yourself with any laws in your region related to wholesaling.

Sign a Contract

Real estate wholesaling is an investing strategy characterized by finding motivated sellers and making offers they simply can't refuse. Although it can produce fast profits, real estate wholesaling takes more time, money and effort than other forms of real estate investment.

Contracts that provide protections for both parties involved are essential. A contingency clause could allow you as the wholesaler to exit from a deal if you're unable to secure a buyer before its expiry.

Wholesalers frequently deal with distressed properties in need of repair. Therefore, it's essential that they inspect each property thoroughly to assess its condition before signing a contract and risk losing money on something worthless or unsellable.

Find a Cash Buyer

Finding a cash buyer is the key to successful real estate wholesaling. These investors enjoy flipping houses quickly, so finding one quickly could yield great rewards.

Once you find a distressed property, reach out to a cash buyer list that you have created in order to see if any buyers may be willing to buy at a discounted price - giving you the chance to sell at a higher price and earn a greater return on your investment.

Search online classifieds and public records to locate cash buyers; alternatively, speak with local realtors who may know any investors who have purchased properties using cash transactions recently.

Reassign the Contract

Real estate wholesale is an effective strategy for new investors to enter the market and begin earning income; however, getting started can be complex.

Wholesalers use purchase agreements with sellers as the foundation of their transactions; once in place, these contracts contain the appropriate language allowing the wholesaler to transfer it on to outside investors for investment purposes.

Wholesalers sell property that was originally bought directly by buyers without incurring liability or obligation from those buyers, and receive payment in return through an assignment fee; at this point they relinquish control of their contract to wholesalers.

The Growing Significance of Virtual Reality in Real Estate

Buying a home, office, or commercial space is a momentous occasion filled with excitement and anticipation. However, the process of searching, visiting multiple properties, and making a final decision can be overwhelming and time-consuming. This is where Virtual Reality (VR) is revolutionizing the real estate sector, offering an immersive, time-saving, and highly interactive property viewing experience.

VR has gained significant traction in real estate, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, when in-person visits were restricted. With VR technology, buyers can now explore properties from anywhere, eliminating the hassle of traveling to multiple locations. It allows potential homeowners to visualize spaces in detail, offering a panoramic, life-like experience before making a purchase decision.

How Virtual Reality is Transforming Real Estate VR is reshaping how properties are marketed and experienced. Here are some of the ways VR is making a difference in the real estate industry:

Virtual Staging: Bringing Empty Spaces to Life Visualizing an empty property can be challenging for buyers. VR enables real estate professionals to virtually furnish and stage homes, making it easier for buyers to picture what a fully furnished home would look like. Through immersive 3D tours, realtors can showcase different interior designs, allowing buyers to explore customizable setups before the property is even built.

Architectural Visualization: Selling Unbuilt Properties Many real estate developers struggle to market properties that are still under construction. VR technology provides a solution by offering an interactive 3D representation of upcoming projects. Buyers can explore the future property’s layout, design, and amenities before it is physically completed, making pre-sales more efficient and engaging.

Immersive Virtual Tours: Experience Homes from Anywhere Traditionally, house-hunting involves multiple site visits, which can be time-consuming and expensive, especially when properties are far from the buyer’s location. With VR-powered virtual tours, potential buyers can explore dozens of properties from the comfort of their homes. By using a VR headset, they can take a 360-degree tour of a property, inspect every corner, and make a more informed decision without stepping outside.

Interactive Virtual Commerce: Customizing Property Features VR in real estate goes beyond property viewing—it also enables buyers to make real-time changes. Through interactive virtual commerce, buyers can modify interiors, change furniture layouts, and even visualize different flooring or wall colors. This level of customization allows buyers to personalize their future homes before making a purchase, enhancing their decision-making process.

Virtual Tenant Assistance: Simplifying Rental Management For landlords managing short-term rentals or multiple properties, virtual tenant assistance powered by VR can be a game-changer. Instead of physically meeting tenants for instructions, property owners can provide virtual guides for property navigation, appliance usage, and maintenance tips. This reduces the need for constant communication while ensuring tenants have all the necessary information at their fingertips.

Key Benefits of Virtual Reality in Real Estate VR is not just a trend—it’s a game-changer that brings multiple advantages to buyers, realtors, and developers alike.

A Strong Emotional Connection VR creates an immersive experience, making buyers feel a sense of ownership and attachment to a property even before making a purchase. This emotional connection increases the likelihood of a successful transaction.

Saves Time and Costs House-hunting can be a tedious and expensive process. VR eliminates unnecessary travel, helping buyers explore multiple properties virtually. Real estate agents can also save time by showcasing listings remotely instead of arranging numerous in-person visits.

Expands Global Reach For international buyers or investors looking for properties in distant locations, VR is a game-changer. Instead of flying across countries for site visits, they can explore properties virtually and make informed decisions without geographical limitations.

Enhances Property Marketing VR allows realtors to market properties more effectively by offering immersive, high-quality presentations. It also sets them apart from competitors, attracting more potential buyers with interactive and visually engaging listings.

Conclusion Virtual Reality is redefining the real estate industry by making property exploration more efficient, engaging, and accessible. With features like virtual staging, immersive tours, and interactive customization, buyers can now experience properties in ways that were previously unimaginable.

As technology continues to evolve, more real estate companies and agents are expected to adopt VR solutions, enhancing customer experiences and streamlining transactions. Whether buying, selling, or renting, VR is paving the way for a smarter and more immersive future in real estate.

Mastermind Strategies: How Jonathan and Cara Closed Their $550,000 Property Deal

https://www.jayconner.com/podcast/episode-240-mastermind-strategies-how-jonathan-and-cara-closed-their-550000-property-deal/

In the latest episode of Raising Private Money, Jay Conner dives into the inspiring story of Jonathan and Cara Broyles, a dynamic duo in the world of real estate investment. From starting their journey in 2021 to closing high-value deals, Jonathan and Cara have shown the power of strategic planning, persistence, and the importance of nurturing relationships with private lenders. This episode highlights their recent property acquisition and the lessons they learned along the way.

Securing the Deal: 143 Royalty Drive

Jonathan and Cara’s most recent endeavor revolves around a property located at 143 Royalty Drive. The property, after undergoing necessary repairs and renovations, boasts an impressive After Repair Value (ARV) of $550,000. However, reaching this point was no small feat.

Assessing the Property:

The house, previously occupied by an owner and 80 Siberian husky dogs, was in dire need of cosmetic repairs. Recognizing the potential in the property, Jonathan and Cara estimated a generous $100,000 for the rehab, including a contingency fund for unexpected expenses—a strategy they call “Murphy,” named after Murphy’s Law that suggests if something can go wrong, it likely will.

Negotiating Purchase Price:

Initially listed by a wholesaler for $367,000, Jonathan and Cara knew their maximum allowable offer based on their rehab estimates would be $310,000. Despite the significant gap between their offer and the asking price, they stuck to their numbers, a testament to their disciplined approach to real estate investment. The wholesaler initially countered with $330,000, but eventually, Jonathan and Cara’s persistence paid off—their $310,000 offer was accepted.

Lesson Learned:

Stick to your evaluated numbers and don’t let emotions sway your decisions. By adhering to their calculations, Jonathan and Cara secured the property at a price that allowed for a profitable investment.

The Power of Private Lending

A vital piece of Jonathan and Cara’s strategy involves leveraging private lenders to fund their property acquisitions and renovations. This approach minimizes the need for traditional loans, accelerates the buying process, and often provides more favorable terms.

Expanding Their Network:

For the 143 Royalty Drive property, Jonathan and Cara initially anticipated using $250,000 from a new private lender. However, this transaction took an exciting turn—the lender expressed interest in funding the entire deal, boosting his investment to $410,000. This unexpected increase emphasized a crucial point in private lending: private lenders often have more funds available than they initially disclose.

Key Point:

Always present opportunities to your private lenders confidently. They may have more capital ready to deploy once they see a promising investment.

Interest Rates and Returns:

For this particular deal, the private lender agreed to an 8% interest rate on the $410,000 loan. Over the projected six-month rehabilitation period, this translates to approximately $16,000 in interest—a reasonable return for the lender while still allowing Jonathan and Cara to achieve their target profit margins.

Working with Realtors: A Smart Investment

Another pillar of Jonathan and Cara’s strategy is their partnership with a reliable realtor. Although paying realtor fees can seem daunting—30,000 in this case on a $550,000 sale—the benefits far outweigh the costs.

Benefits of a Professional Realtor:

Realtors handle the legwork, both pre- and post-renovation, helping to price the property appropriately and sell it quickly.

They ensure the property reaches a wide audience, increasing the chances of a top-dollar sale.

Advice to Investors:

Invest in a good realtor. Their expertise can make a profound difference in the success of your property sale.

Lessons from the Field

Reflecting on their recent success, Jonathan and Cara shared essential lessons for fellow investors:

Always Offer: Regardless of the listed price, don’t shy away from making offers based on your calculations. The initial rejection might turn into acceptance later.

Private Lenders Have More: Never hesitate to present more significant opportunities to your private lenders, as they often have additional funds they’re willing to invest with trusted partners.

Stick to Your Numbers: Emotional decisions can lead to financial pitfalls. Stick with your estimated figures to ensure profitability.

Jonathan and Cara’s journey is a remarkable example of how strategic planning, leveraging private lending, and forming strong professional relationships can lead to successful real estate investments. Their story serves as an inspiration for both new and seasoned investors aiming to maximize their returns in the property market.

Conclusion

As 2025 approaches, the real estate market continues to offer numerous opportunities for those willing to apply the right strategies. Jonathan and Cara’s story is a testament to what can be achieved with persistence, discipline, and strategic financial planning. Whether you’re just starting or looking to improve your current strategies, the lessons from their journey provide valuable insights into successful real estate investing.

Why did Jonathan and Cara Broyles decide to include an additional amount for “Murphy” in their rehab budget, and how does this strategy help them in their real estate projects?

What was the after-repair value (ARV) of the property on Royalty Drive, and how does this figure influence their buying and rehab decisions?

Jonathan mentioned a key takeaway about making offers on properties, even when the listed price seems too high. Can you discuss why this approach can be beneficial in real estate investing?

Jonathan and Cara increased their available funds with their private lender from $250,000 to $410,000. Why is it important to maintain strong relationships with private lenders, and how can other investors replicate this success?

How did Jonathan and Cara handle the negotiation process with the wholesaler, and what lessons can other investors learn from their experience?

The podcast touched on the importance of using a realtor for selling properties. What are the main advantages of working with a realtor, according to Jonathan and Jay Conner?

Why did Jonathan and Cara decide to stay “loyal” to their realtor, and how does this loyalty impact their business?

Jonathan and Cara mentioned that one of their existing private lenders introduced them to a new lender. How do referrals and word-of-mouth play a role in building a network of private lenders?

Cara Broyles highlighted the importance of trust in their new private lender deciding to work with them. Why is trust such a crucial element in private lending, and how can investors build and maintain trust with their lenders?

How do Jonathan and Cara ensure they stick to their investment numbers, and why is this discipline important for the success and safety of their real estate deals?

Fun facts that were revealed in the episode:

The house that Jonathan and Cara purchased was previously occupied by someone with 80 Siberian husky dogs, resulting in significant cosmetic damage.

The concept of “Murphy” was introduced, representing unexpected costs that arise during a rehab project.

Jonathan and Cara’s newest private lender initially pledged $250,000 but decided to fund the entire $410,000 deal after seeing the potential, showing that private lenders often have more funds available than they initially disclose.

Can You Rent Your Home While Pursuing a Short Sale?

Renting out your home while pursuing a short sale is a complex decision that requires careful consideration of legal, financial, and ethical factors. A short sale occurs when a homeowner sells their property for less than the outstanding mortgage balance, with the lender's approval. This process is typically initiated when the homeowner faces financial hardship, delinquent mortgage payments, or is at risk of foreclosure. Introducing tenants into this scenario adds layers of complexity that must be navigated thoughtfully.

Key Considerations for Renting During a Short Sale

Lender Policies and Approval Lenders have specific policies regarding the occupancy status of a property during a short sale. Many require the property to be owner-occupied and may prohibit renting it out during the short sale process. It's crucial to review your mortgage agreement and consult with your lender to understand their stance on renting during a short sale.

Lease Agreements and Tenant Rights If you decide to rent out your home, you'll need to establish a lease agreement with the tenant. However, selling a property with an active lease can deter potential buyers who prefer immediate occupancy. Additionally, tenants have legal rights, and evicting them to facilitate a sale can lead to legal complications and ethical dilemmas.

Financial Implications While rental income might provide temporary financial relief, it could impact your eligibility for a short sale. Lenders assess your financial hardship to approve a short sale, and additional income from renting could undermine your hardship claim. Moreover, rental income may have tax implications that should be discussed with a financial advisor.

Disclosure Obligations Full transparency with both your lender and potential buyers is essential. Failing to disclose that the property is tenant-occupied can lead to trust issues and potential legal consequences. Buyers need to be aware of the property's occupancy status to make informed decisions.

Best Practices for Homeowners

Consult with Professionals: Engage with real estate agents, short sale specialists, attorneys, and financial advisors experienced in short sales to navigate the complexities of renting during this process.

Communicate with Your Lender: Before making any decisions, discuss your intentions with your lender to ensure compliance with their policies and avoid jeopardizing the short sale approval.

Consider Tenant Cooperation: If the property is already rented, work collaboratively with your tenants to ensure the home is accessible for showings and well-maintained to attract potential buyers.

Additional Factors to Keep in Mind

Foreclosure Alternatives: A short sale is often considered an alternative to foreclosure, but lenders might assess the rental status of your property during the decision process.

Short Sale Realtor: Partnering with a short sale realtor who has expertise in navigating these scenarios can help streamline the process.

Short Sale Eligibility: Ensure you meet the short sale eligibility requirements, which may include demonstrating ongoing financial challenges.

Conclusion

Renting your home while pursuing a short sale involves navigating lender policies, tenant rights, and financial implications. It's essential to approach this decision with thorough research and professional guidance to ensure a smooth process.For personalized assistance with short sales, consider reaching out to Short Sale Connection.

Planning To Sell This Year? Don't Forget To Factor in These Closing Costs

If you're thinking about selling your home this year, you’ve probably been monitoring its value for a while so you can sell and still get a substantial profit. But before you start counting how much money you’ll make, don’t forget to factor in seller closing costs into the sale price. 

Let's take a closer look at closing costs and an overview of the fees that will be deducted from your overall profit.

“Closing costs” is a catchall term for the various fees and expenses you must pay upon closing or completing a real estate transaction. These can include various fees, expenses, and charges, which are split between the home's buyer and seller. These fees do not include realtor commissions.

The exact fees can vary depending on your location and the house’s cost. But in total, closing fees can add up to around 2 to 5 percent of the home’s sale price, according to Freddie Mac. Sellers usually take these costs out of their sale proceeds (unless you specifically ask to pay them separately), while buyers need to pay them upfront.

Transfer tax

Most states or local governments charge some form of transfer tax. According to Bankrate, a real estate transfer tax, also sometimes called a deed transfer tax or documentary stamp tax, is a one-time tax or fee imposed by a state or local jurisdiction upon the transfer of real property. In other words, it's a fee that you’ll pay when the title for the home passes from you to your buyer upon closing. The cost varies widely by location but is typically dependent on the home’s sale price. Also, take note that not every state has this tax.

Title-related fees

In most markets, it is the seller who pays for the owner’s title insurance, which protects against potential ownership issues. It’s a one-time payment that protects the future owner from the financial burden of sorting out title issues in court, whether they arise at closing or years down the road. Costs can vary from a few hundred dollars to $1,500 or more.

Attorney fees

In some states, home sellers are required to have a real estate attorney to help them with the transaction. The transaction cannot legally close without one. And even when it isn’t mandatory, many choose to hire one to ensure their interests are protected. This is especially true when dealing with complex transactions, distressed properties, or inherited homes. 

Since markets also vary, in some areas both the buyers and sellers have their attorneys, while in others, it’s common to have one settlement attorney for the real estate transaction. Their fees range significantly — anywhere from $150 to $350 per hour, or it could be a flat fee depending on what they do for you.

Escrow or settlement fees

Funds are usually held in escrow during the course of a real estate transaction, which means there will likely be fees owed to cover the services of the escrow company. This independent third party not only handles the money that’s being exchanged between the seller and buyer but also manages the signing and recording of the closing documents. As with other fees, the amount varies by state but can range from $300 to $700, or sometimes more. This can also include extra line items related to documentation (drafting, notarization, recordation) and money movement (wire transfers).

Prorated property taxes

One of the costs of homeownership is property taxes. And these must be up to date before you hand over the keys to the buyer. All states have some form of property tax, although the rate can vary widely. When you sell your house, you'll be responsible for prorated property taxes due up to the date of the sale, at which point the buyer will take over. Depending on your timing, you may have to pay money at closing to bring yourself up to date.

Mortgage payoff

If you still have a mortgage on the property you’re selling, which is common, the remainder of that loan will need to be paid off before the sale is finalized. In some cases, your lender may require you to pay a prepayment penalty for paying off your mortgage before the end of the term. To get an accurate picture of this closing cost, make sure to talk to your lender about what will be required to pay off the home loan.

HOA fees

Just like with property taxes, if you’re living in a community that is subject to a homeowner’s association, HOA fees will also need to be paid up-to-date as of closing day. Some HOAs also charge a transfer fee to transfer your property to the new owner. Best to check with your HOA’s rules and regulations so you won’t be surprised by any charges.

Seller concessions

In a buyer’s market or just to make the deal go through, it’s a common practice for a seller to offer to pay some of the buyer’s closing costs. This is also referred to as seller contribution or seller credit, which can help sweeten the deal and make your home more attractive to potential buyers. One of the most common seller concessions is agreeing to cover the cost of necessary repairs, especially after the home inspection. 

The total amount of seller concessions may be limited by the type of home loan the buyer is using. For example, loans backed by government agencies, such as the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), have their limits on seller concessions. If you’ve offered any seller concessions as part of your deal, expect that these funds are also due at closing.

Closing costs are so named because they are literally due when you close on the sale of your home. This is after you and the buyer meet with the closing agent, title company, and/or attorneys to disburse the funds and sign all necessary documents. All of the items we've covered above will be deducted from your proceeds on the sale so you won’t need to bring cash to your closing unless you specifically ask to pay for them separately or your property is underwater, which means you owe more on it than it's worth.

Unfortunately, though, you often won’t know how much your closing costs will be until roughly three business days before closing day. You will receive a closing statement or settlement statement, a document that includes an itemized list of closing fees. If you have a trusted and reliable agent working on your side, they may prepare a seller’s net sheet. This is an unofficial document that is an itemized breakdown of all of the closing costs, plus an estimate of the sum you will receive, or net after the final purchase contract is signed.
