What's next after the calls start coming in?

Since the bank REO inventory seems to be drying up, I'm ramping up my private seller marketing once again (yellow letters, etc.)

I’ve gotten the letters, mailing system & schedule down—now that they’ve gone out, I sit back & wait for the calls to roll in, lol.

Here’s always been my problem, though: Once I get calls, I never seem to know what to do with them—the right questions to ask, how to structure the deals, etc.I feel like there’s so much more I can be doing with leads but once I get them I’m not sure exactly what.

What is your “formula” for asking the right questions, sussing out their situation, determining if they’re motivated & if it’s a good enough deal to actually visit, the right solution, etc?
