I found a lot of realtors on Trulia.com now comes the HARD part. I am terrified to call them! I don't want them to know that I am NEW at realestate investing. I also don't want them to HEAR me and know that I sound like I know what I am doing in an email and get on the phone and blow my cover sort of speak. I know I have to talk to people and I can't hide behind my computer. I just don't know what to say to realtors that sounds professional and knowledgeable. Any helpful hints out there?
Thanks

Today was not supposed to be a RE day but then again, things happen!

Hello to you all, HAVE AN IMPORTANT QUESTION:
I have flipped several dozens of homes over the past 20 years, the old fashion way (purchase, fix-up, and sell). I am fortunate to have a great realtor/s, a great title company (who I asked last week, and will honor assignments),etc... I am new to Dean's strategies. I have started my list of investors through research of a cash buyers list from my realtor, and researching through the tax sites!
QUESTION IS: I believe I understand how to do this with a private owner, but with REO's everywhere!, how do I approach the BANK with a low offer and TIE UP the deal for one of my investors? With no money down, does the bank need to or Have To know I am doing an assignment contract? How to do this??
Hope this isn't asking too much of you to answer.

This is my first blog entry, anywhere! I've started, and subsquently stopped, various investment ventures. However, I've become more serious with real estate as a result of the pressure that I'm experincing as a wage earner.

If I don't utilize the tools that I have available to me now, I'm sunk. I've started using Dean's [Graziosi] Rock Bottom Blue Print program. It's a good think that I've started, now! The proverial hand writing is on the wall. A new company has entered into contract services at the facility that I work at. And, they are vowing cut backs. I'm already bleeding to death, like I need to be hacked up some more.

Renter to owner. Took me a while but I did it! lease/assignment deal on a beautiful civil war home with twelve acres. I have another house I am looking at as an investment with a realtor. I AM GOING TO DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was supposed to be more of a lure/ fish day but I was able to get some RE in as well

I had no mail or PM's when I got online this morning.
Came to DG.com and read a few forums before going to deliver my fish.

In a stroke of luck, while I was waiting for my customer, a van pulled into the parking lot I was in with a sign that said "Property management" on it. I went over to the driver and introduced myself and we spoke for about 10-15 minutes. Bottom line, I have another name on my power team list.

After coming back from the delivery, I answered some PMs, researched some stuff for my partner, went to 2 webinars, posted in a forum and did my dailies.
Gotta go back to lure work for my order delivery in 2 days.
