Flip lead on estate/probate pre-MLS

Lara Pfeffer
Posted

Soft lead (friend of mine is their handyman) on house in Class A MKE suburb. Flip is only way the cash on cash/flow works. How to phrase my note to them today? "Hi ______, my hubby & have been friends with "___" (great guy!!) for 10 years now. My condolensces for your loss. He mentioned that you may be interesting in selling your Mom's home.  We have been looking for a house in this area for awhile!  (we're currently in "G______" area. Here's my # why don't you give me a call, we're very interested & can close quickly, no real estate agents fees which will save your family a lot. Looking forward to talking with you soon! Thank you, Lara & Fred :)

Sounds good! Definitely have to show empathy. May wanna get a "sorry for your loss" card too


 Thank you Kerry, I actually got super brave & approached the daughter loading up her car. She showed me the house, and I made a verbal offer & suggested we get an offer to purchase to them & bring a contractor back with us to advise on what's need & how much $$. I am SO proud of myself and my guy Fred will be too!! I'm not shy at all, but that made me sweat a minute there. Eek!
