What are your first questions to a seller?

[Matt DuSold]

I know the obvious ones, where, cost, loans on home. What other questions you ask when you get leads from someone looking to sell their home?

I ask because I am looking to get into wholesaling and getting rentals. I will likely get most of my rentals by sub-to or any inexpensive way because I will be in graduate school at this point. I know if I want to wholesale I will need to figure out ARV but other than the standard and obvious questions I don't know what else to ask to figure out if a home would be a good buy.

So again, I guess my question is, What questions do you ask a seller when they call you, so you can evaluate the deal quickly and easily before you go see the property?
