Hello,

I've been on and off with my real estate journey due to personal life issues. But for the past few months I've spent most of my free time reading many articles, blogs, books, and posts to give me a solid foundation of knowledge in REI.

With that, my current situation is, I have low capital to purchase a property, thus I plan to find and wholesale properties until I have enough money saved to purchase my first home.

 My biggest step that I've made so far is purchasing my first batch of yellow letters to mail to absentee owners. 

In the meantime, while I wait to recieve my letters, is their anything else I can do to help with getting my first deal under contract? How about other methods to finding motivated sellers? Sorry for the long post, thanks in advance!

Kevin, 

I am new to the business as well. Do you mind sharing with me how you purchased the yellow letters? I recently attended a Than Merrill Real Estate Investment seminar and this was mentioned. However, no clear direction on how to obtain. 

 I got my yellow letters from yellowletters.com. They have great customer service and can help you with whatever you need.
