Help!!!

Lorna C Daley

Posted

Hello everyone,

It seems like I may have hit a mother load. I sent out a mailing and I got 2 calls from one of the sellers. (I sent cards for 2 of her properties she owns.) Turns out its a small RE/Investment firm.

I need help, please. I would considering partnering for the help.

Thanks,

Lorna

@Lorna C Daley I'm a newbie, too. I want a deal, too. But, as green as I am, I know that Zillow is notoriously INaccurate. DON'T rely on Zillow for comps. Call a realtor and ask for comps. There are a LOT of BP members in TX. I would STRONGLY suggest that you contact one in the area to help walk you through the possible pitfalls. If these are such GREAT deals, I bet that you can offer a couple thousand to the BP member for their time and effort to teach you the ropes.

I learned the hard way on my first deal. Don't repeat my mistake. To be frank, you don't know all the things that you don't know right now. You are about to learn SOME of the things you don't know, but the lesson is going to cost you a LOT.
