I went to work marketing and "making it happen mode". No book work today.

- I had a meeting with a cash buyer and discussed me using his money to make offers with the intent to wholesale the deal. He is more into buying fixing and Lease Purchasing his homesBut, he said ok. He is going to let me make offers using his POF letter and Earnest Money. If we make a REO offer we will use the Due Diligence period to sell the deal. If it is not a REO we will ask for 21 days due diligence and sell the deal.

I had all his answers and I knew the last 2 by memory since they were last month and the month before (homes I was the buyers agent on for my investor. I had found and negotiate the purchase so I had the info.) He said he would have paid me 4k on the first one and he would not have been interested in the second one. He said he buys in Ga., bought 150 homes last year, has 2 real estate companies and would buy from me. Then he said he had a meeting and had to go. This guy took the addresses from me pull MLS, then went into tax records and pulled info. He had pictures and comp sales in front of him within seconds. Cruched numbers and even gave me a little info. on a area. So, he is on my list.

***Had my first call from a buyer on my craigslist ad. He wants owner financing and was going through a tough time with a loan mod. with B of America. I told him I would look for a home and call him when able.

Val - Thank you for time and putting a note on my journal. I am gearing up for bandit signs then more bandit signs!

Aileen - Best wishes! As I have learned here on this site from the successful investors "keep taking ACTION" that is a big key to this process.

Hi Dan keep paddling and keep those feet moving and DONT look back no matter what!!!!!!! Our DGers family is second to none( the best in the world )as the Bible says "the man that puts his hands to the plow and looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God, keep your eyes on the goal and look straight ahead never look to the left or right, Jim

Right on brother! I heard that again in church a few months ago. Thank you for stating here on this post. You do the same and I will see you the harvest. Peace! Thank you very much!

Yesterday

ACTION =
1) - I made 8 Bandit signs, getting ready for Friday
2) - I email 10 cash buyers from www.myhousedeals.com cash buyers list?
3) - I placed AD that is a home that my invertor just bought, kinda a 1 ghost ad. However he would allow me to wholesale the home.
4) - I received one call from a 3/2 bandit sign. Gentalman said he was a investor and saw my sign (he left the message and I called back and received his VMail).

Maybe it is just me, but 2 years ago Ghost ads did me wonders found me a ton of
buyers. I have noticed this past year though i get calls from them and no joke get called a scam or a lier.

I have since started putting up ads such as
"Looking for serious investors to buy over stocked property"
"Me and my partner are getting more properties than we can
buy and want to pass these deals off to serious buyers"
"Respond to get on our buyer's list"

No joke i have had some serious results and honestly less
lying and using the line "Ohh i just sold that house but i
get those types all the time"

Thinking about it now, that does sound kind of telemarketing like.

My opinion EVERY ONE is starting to use ghost ads and people are
being buyers and agents are starting to figure out most of those
ads are from newbies or scams...Remember craig's list is full of them.

I hope that helps a little if anything, its just my thoughts on
ghost ads and how i changed up my game plan and came out with better
results..

David

My ad is a actual home that I was the buyers agent on for a investor. He would allow me to wholesale the home. However he has started the rehab and it is more like a discounted home at this time. BUT, there is a home, for me that is a must.
