  1. Why Not to Launch Real Estate Startup? Oleksiy Nesterenko Why shouldn't entrepreneurs launch real estate related startups, and is wholesaling properties a much smarter move? New tech startups seem to be popping every few nano-seconds these days. There is no question that this is an awesome time to start a new business. Capital is pretty easy to come by, Americans are bullish on the future, private individuals are willing to bet on the future, technology has made kicking off a new venture a breeze, and real estate has been booming. However, this doesn't automatically mean that a new real estate related tech startup is a wise or profitable move right now. While this has become an increasingly popular trend, it is exactly this popularity which also makes it less profitable for those attempting it now. There are a number of reasons to stop and rethink if this is the best path. The first and most common issue is that it has already been done. Far too few of those contemplating a tech related real estate startp fail to do any thorough market research. If they did most would find that their 'revolutionary' idea has already been done a dozen times. This is definitely true of most search related startups. Then there are they truly delusional that are thinking of setting up 'new' real estate portals for 'unlisted' properties. Obviously, once it's online it isn't really 'off-market' anymore right!

While the internet is saturated with get rich quick advice for setting up a website and making a mint tomorrow; that's a rarity in reality. Most have no idea what it will really cost to build a seriously competitive website and promote it. Just remember you will be competing against startups that have received millions in venture capital funding from the likes of Google, and who aren't under any pressure to make money fast. So if you don't have bigger pockets or need to turn a profit sometime soon there may be a better approach.
