I just joined Realty Store. At first I joined a dollar for a week and called back to cancel, and they gave me a deal for 3 mon. for 29.95. A good site.

Check out your county online. Simply google "your county" then once you get to your county homepage click on open public records and search for forclosures. I found almost 200 when I looked at my county website.

If your county does not have a webpage, get out your phonebook call up the county courthouse and find out what department you have to go to and the hours and you can go get a list of forclosed houses and when they go up for sale all the info you need.

Also check out Zillow.com. That website is super cool for me. All you do is type in an address and it brings up an entire map of the neighborhood and prices every house for you. It shows you which are for sale and everything. Very helpful! Smiling there is a whole list of websites like that in Deans book on page 130.

Its great that you've come this far Smiling you already have buyers!!!! Thats super great!! Just keep active in the forums and post your questions. All the help and knowledge you need is here in this website!

Stay positive and stay focused!

Best of luck to you!

Thanks, I'll get on my

Thanks, I'll get on my county homepage today. Great advice!!

Don't Trust Zillow

Sometimes Zillow is off by a lot. Don't always trust Zillow. You need to get actual comps from agents to see what the actual sales are.

Try Total View

Yes I would recommend total view. This web site helps a lot of newbies like me and you. I hope Dean will not cut off this privilege for us. A lot of Deans family member will benefit on this site. dom

Just joined!

Just wanted to say hello! Got my book last week Monday and started Dean's Academy today. Looked at 5 properties last week, one with a Realtor. I'm very anxious to move forward but not sure if I'm ready. I probably didn't need to join the Academy to make a deal but I did 'cause I want to sound professional when approaching a buyer or seller to make a deal, especially when I don't have money. Jeez! I had to hustle to pay for the academy.
Well, I guess that's why we're here, to learn to be able to do so.
If anyone is from the Big Island of Hawaii please contact me, I really need to network with someone for support.
Good luck to everyone...Aloha!

Hey! You might try the site connectedinvestors.com. There are a lot of investors on that site. Also, find a good realtor. They are worth their weight in gold. I finally found one, after searching for 3 months, and she is amazing. She has found such great deals. Definitely look on Facebook.com. That is a great site. Twitter is, also, a good one. And, lastly, there is linkedin.com. Let me know how your hunt goes!

Question about Connected Investors

Kevin A Goldman's picture

Hi apocolyps,

I saw a post you left for someone that talked about ConnectedInvestors. I went to the site, but I am apparently required to enter a promo code. Any chance you saved what yours was or know where I can get one?

Thanks!
Kevin

Never mind! :)

Ihave been looking for investors and have found that investors in the Tacoma,Wa area want to buy for 50 -75% off. So I'm wondering about how people have been getting the price they are asking? Also when working with FSBO would you use a realitor or how would you set up say a asignment of contract so to turn it quickly? Thank you I have learned so much so far and am ready to Succeed!! S*

Bird dog for me

bluesummerventures's picture

Hi Kim,
You can be a bird dog for me and earn marketing fee.
If you bring me buyer my agent will pay you 15% of her commission as a marketing fee. If you do enough you can earn money for down on a place.
I have a home in Las Vegas For Sale for $105,000. Looking for cash buyer. This will rent around $1050-$1150 per month. Great ROI for invester. Also in 2005 it sold for $245,000 so when the market recovers the invester will double his money easy.
PM me for more details and give me your email address.

You Are on THe Right Track!!!

shanegore08's picture

I remember I had the same feelings as I started my Real Estate Investing Career, but it is totally normal. Any time you do anything for the first time there is that feeling of anxiety. The main thing I think you must let drive you and motivate you is the fear of not giving a better life a chance. If you dont give it all you got now when will you ever. Thats what pushes me pass all the obstacles that will come in the way of any journey or path you take.

The knowledge that you need to achieve your goals can be recieved right here on the DG website simply by asking questions. I found a way to join the success academy, but if you really cant squeeze it right now there are plenty of successful people right here on this website who would be more than willing to network and answer any questions you might have. Alot of times you dont even have to ask the question because your question has already been asked by someone else.

I wish you much Success,

Success Academy

CBaker's picture

I was wondering if they will accept standard scholarships. I have a 4k scholarship I earned as part of my service with AmeriCorps for any school of my choice. Do i call the acadamy for that?

Check it OUt

shanegore08's picture

I do not know if they would accept that. but it does not hurt to give it a try.

Marketing for buyers

I am a newbie in the Maryland, Virginia, DC area. I was wondering if anyone have any ideas to help me get started. I have some decent connections for properties that are ready to sell, but I do not have buyers. I was thinking of targeting investor groups and individual investors because I know that they are ready to buy if the property fits their criteria. If you have any suggestions to help me get buyers that would be awesome.

Sounds Like a Plan

shanegore08's picture

Yeah sounds like you got a good start. Craigs list is a good place to find investors. Look for rental ads and ask the owners if they would be interested in purchasing other properties 30%-50% below the FMV. You can also look in your local classifieds. You can find buyers by putting out ghost ads on craigslist or making fliers and painting the town with them. Dean talks about this in his book Profit from Real Estate Now. Good Luck
