MLS offers
Hi. My question is this. My money is low, I don't have money for marketing yet (direct mail campaigns), so I am cruising the properties that are listed. I know deals can be done by putting lots of offers in with the help of an agent. I was told by a mentor to put at least 25 offers in a week, i was told by another close friend/investor to have an agent write 100 offers a week or you (I'm sure he was exaggerating). I'm not sure how the process goes. Let's say I put in 10 offers a week off the MLS. Do I have to visit each one with a agent or contractor in order to get the right repair numbers BEFORE making the offer? Wouldn't that be tiring? I don't understand. Please help.
