real estate investingMy guest today is Jim Huntzicker of Yellow Star Properties, and the topic of today's show is how to find deals on the MLS.  I've really been looking forward to sharing this show with you.

Jim is an investor and as well as an agent. He is also the creator of a program called MLS Domination and the Real Estate Investor Academy.

Jim’s company does an impressive 10 to 14 rehabs at any one time, and he has been involved in over 450 transactions to date.  He finds 75% of his deals on the MLS.

Jim says that approximately 80% of all property sold will be listed on the MLS. Some of those will be investor deals.  So why isn't everyone having the same success?  It's almost certainly because that they aren't doing things the same way as he is.

Listen in as Jim gives you some tips on how you can find deals on the MLS.

About Jim

How to find deals on the MLSJim is the founder of The Real Estate Investor Academy® and creator of MLS Domination®. He has been a licensed agent in IL since 2005 and a real estate investor since 2008. For the last 8 he has used the MLS as his primary deal source. Jim has been using these strategies through every kind of market; the good, the bad, and the ugly!

The stuff he teaches in his highly sought-after MLS Domination® course works all over the country (and Canada) in any kind of market (with an MLS of course). But this course, like any other, is no magic pill. It will teach you everything you need to know to get a predictable stream of profitable deals out of your local MLS.  But it is still going to take some work and implementation to make the deals happen.
