Here's the difference between an agent who shows up and an agent who shows out: Before any appointment — buyer or listing — run this 10-minute pull: 1. PropStream: estimated equity, ownership history, any liens or distress signals 2. MLS: recent closed sales within 0.5 miles, current active competition 3. Days-on-market trend in that zip: is it moving fast or sitting? Then build one clear talking point from each category. When you walk in knowing more about a property than the person sitting across from you — you control the conversation. Buyers trust you more. Sellers take you seriously. Most agents skip this because it takes 10 minutes they don't think they have. That 10 minutes is exactly why clients choose you over the agent who just showed up. Try it before your next appointment: https://trial.propstream.com/?utm_source=affiliate&utm_medium=cpa&utm_campaign=joshuamassieh

Shifting gears — adding a HIGH-END buy box to the mix. I'm actively looking for a luxury property to flip. Here's the target: 📍 San Diego ONLY 💰 Buy ~$1M → Sell at $3M+ 🏚️ Distressed, outdated, estate situations, or motivated sellers — off-market preferred Areas where this spread actually makes sense: • La Jolla • Del Mar • Rancho Santa Fe (RSF) • Coronado • Solana Beach • Carmel Valley (luxury teardowns) • Encinitas (west of 5) • Fairbanks Ranch • Point Loma (upper pockets) • Santaluz / 4S Ranch (estate-level) These are the only San Diego markets where the numbers can realistically support a $2M+ spread on a flip. I'm pulling data on these areas. If I put a list together and you want to hop on a quick call to review it together — are you in? Drop a comment below if you're open to connecting. 👇
