Question
There are no experts for BC real estate, but if you can awnser my question thats great! if you cant then no biggie either! alright so I'm 19 and I have got $80,000 in savings. There is this investment opporunity in Surrey BC, putting 5% down (VIP PACKAGE) in a CONDOMONIUM, these condos are not built yet so all the client has to pay is around $12,000 to get the condo with no downpayment no interest no nothing. The condo is worth $240,000, and when the condo is built I can flip the condo price around to $340,000. Thats a $100,000 profit and I only paid $12,000. Sounds like a PROs to me...but every real estates job is to sell for commision. They hardly tell the CON's, are there any cons to look out for? Any risks involved in this investment because it sounds like a hell of a investment to me? What should I ask n look out for? I'm 19 so im really cautious...thanx!
