2014 Real Estate Trends To Watch For Property Wholesalers
This data is critical for real estate wholesalers who are serious about scaling their businesses in 2014 and beyond. Those wholesaling and flipping houses may work fast enough to be able to make a profit in any market cycle and anywhere. However, to go big, requires being a little more strategic.
So what 2014 real estate trends should wholesalers have an eye on?
1. Going Green
Going green is increasingly not just wanted, but clearly more profitable. In the U.S. street trees alone are reportedly adding $52M to property values. Now Fannie and Freddie are launching new green rated securities, while bigger investment firms push ‘green’ bonds.
2. Urban, Urban, Urban
It winning in real estate investment is all about “location”, in 2014 it’s all about urban locations, infill and redevelopment. Some may mistakenly allow themselves to be led into the idea the ‘burbs’ are dead for good, but there is no question downtown is the focus of the moment.
3. Mixed Use
For many reasons mixed use properties are being pushed hard from all angles. This should not be underestimated. Some may find this class more challenging, but those investors which embrace it first and find their angle stand to win big.
4. Capital Flow
If property investors thought there was a lot of money floating around over the last few years, it’s only going to get greener in 2014 and beyond. Aside from private equity jumping into the mortgage business, BestTransactionFunding.com offers virtually unlimited access to capital for fast flips and legitimate double closings. At the same time top trends reports and surveys from the urban Land Institute and PwC which surveyed over 1,000 of the most influential industry leaders, suggests capital flows are increasing with much of it flowing out of Asia. With London topped out and Hong Kong bursting you can bet the U.S. is a top pick for those seeking both yield and safety.
5. Demographic Shifts
It’s not just Generation Y driving trends into urban areas to keep in mind this year. Senior analysts also comment on aging Boomers also relocating to find warmer weather and better and more convenient health care solutions.

"....a few months back, I happened upon a video, on your site, regarding the use of transactional funding with Hud properties; and I found myself replaying the video over and over because of the value that I saw in the message...it actually explained the process, step-by-step on how to submit a Hud deal by using transactional funding. Once I completed the video, my initial response was to take immediate action by duplicating what I had learned from the video into real time. So I did some research on properties in a market where I knew I had buyers; and put together a hud deal. I then located a realtor able and willing to submit my bid online and within a couple of days, to my surprise, received a call telling me that I had won – my very 1st Hud bid."
