Investor Guide
Find off-market & distressed deals.
The best flip deals rarely sit on the open market. Here’s how experienced investors in Southern California find off-market and distressed properties before everyone else.
Sourcing
Where the deals are
Direct outreach
Targeted mail and calls to owners of aging or vacant homes surface sellers before they list.
Distressed situations
Pre-foreclosures, probate, tired landlords, and inherited homes are classic sources of motivated sellers.
Agent networks
Local agents often know of sellers who want a quiet, fast sale — a key advantage of working with Moovden.
Move fast
Turning a lead into a deal
Be ready to underwrite
