So let's see how this goes. The way I'm looking at it is easy to rent, easy to sell, and in demand. This school has one of the top doctoral programs in the nation. I'll keep you guys posted!

Well I promised to keep you guys updated. We are pushed back to mailing till this Saturday. I ended up wrenching on my wife's car. I'll keep you guys posted when calls start to roll in.
Great question. I DID NOT filter it because I want homes in this particular area. Basically that hit right against the college. We've got a few things that we want to try. (multi family conversions)
The goal of this campaign is to get a few homes around the campus. I "wholesale as a secondary measure" feel free to check out my explanation of that on the blog.
My primary goal is holding/flips. However given the location anything I don't want will be extremely easy to wholesale. Or sell to one of my wife's friends.

Wow 4 calls after one mailing? What is the language and type of the mailer? I like the campus idea. Would love to hear more about your marketing strategy. Thanks for sharing!

Mike Nickles just wanted to make sure everyone knows there are a lot of great list providers and mail creators. I've had much better success with some and not so great with others. Ryan D. Clearly has had amazing success using jerry. One of the reasons I have him a shot.

Back to the point of this thread.
The gentleman with the 20k house said the offer was within reason. He has 25 other homes he's liquidating (retiring) and we're meeting up early next week.
I'm also meeting with a lady on a home early next week that she owes 72k and its worth 105k. She is moving in with her sister and just wants out of the mortgage. We're looking at a potential subject to, land contract, or just a cash deal.
