OfflineIt feels great to know that if I follow what I'm taught, then it follows that I WILL succeed.
I put the Automated Forecloser Finder into motion.
I set up the 1-800 # and the online survey. then I put out some signs that read...
Don't Let Them Foreclose
I Buy Houses
Fast Fast
1-800-........
Two days later I got a call, he filled out the online survey and the automated system notified me. (Even though I was out of town at the time.)
First thing Monday I called him and he was very pleased with my quick response. Said he had called a few others but I was there to meet his needs.
We looked at the property Monday afternoon, and signed the Purchase Agreement Tuesday morning.
Now I'm going to work my Buyers List and 10 or 12 online classifieds.
So far I only have about 2 hours in this and Wow --
am I excited!! I'll keep you posted.

I'm not the list Guru, I just followed what I read in the books and on the DG website. I picked up the local papers and alo the Greensheets and Thrify-Nickle, American classifieds Local Real Estate rags etc. I found the ads that say "I Buy Houses" and "Sell Today" and "Cash for Houses" etc. Get a legal pad and a pen. Write down the first # and pick up the phone. Call him up and be honest. Tell him you are a beginning investor and you are actively searching for properties at a discount. Ask him what types of properties he is looking for and in what areas. Take NOTES- NOTES- and more NOTES. Ask him point blank,"Would it be OK to add you to my buyers list? Be comfortable with it,ask many questions and learn from him too. You want to build a working relationship with these people. He might not buy from you now but he might be the one that makes you $500K next year.
Now what? - Call the next one in the paper. and so on. In one evening you've started your buyers list.
Search online for a local Real Estate Ivesting Club. Go signup and go to a meeting. These people know people who know people,get to know them.
I just tried some thing new tonight. I just posted this ad on Backpage.c m

Sellers and Investors** Tell me what your looking for** I find em all the time!!!
Sellers** let me look at your property. I may be able to make you an offer right away. If I can't buy it I have an army of other investors who can.
Investors** Contact me with your criteria, let me know what and where you are looking to invest. If I don' have it now I bettcha I can go find it.
Sellers want to sell and Investors want to buy. I help them find each other. Everybody wins.

What do you use for the comp value? I have been looking at Total View, Zillow and Google because they give you some recent sale values but are they really accurate. I want to find the deals but how do I really know if they are deals? Can you give some tips.
locking up two contracts! Now, we gotta hear about closing them out and finishing the deals, stay on it.
