I spent a year calling agents to try to get them to work with me. When I get one that says they work well with investors they lie. They are looking for buyers of houses already fixed so they can rent them out. when I tell them I am trying to buy low fix them up and sell them at below market value they drop me like a rock. The ones willing to stay want to be paid a retainer, file sole agent or present a letter of funding. I have contacted 12 hard money lenders even given to me from this site. Most want a percentage paid by me and want all receipts and money itemized listed with estimated as work is being done.

How do you stop the frustration? I did a lot before starting training, I got an EIN number from the IRS, since I couldnt afford a corporation I was only able to create a ficticious name. I made flyers, business cards and pamphlets for car windshields. I got a PO Box and email accounts. I also set up a business phone at my home.
