Hey gang,

  I've seen a lot of these posts where people aspire to document their progress on a campaign or flip or deal, and then all of a sudden they disappear off the site and leave you wondering what the hell happened. It is my goal to counter that tendency and document a somewhat small direct mail campaign for the next six months with updates as they seem warranted, whatever happens.

 After so many months of reading, studying, and flip flopping on where to start, I decided wholesaling would be my jumping off point just to build some capital in order to buy and hold and hopefully rehab properties. 

 And having listened to so many podcasts, read so many blogs, and having come to understand that almost all of the successful people (with a few exceptions) do their own marketing, this is where I decided to put my accumulated wealth of $3,500 (which took me about 4-5 months to save - I don't make a lot).

 So where's it going? Well, I have three lists, basically.

1.) 500 absentee owners 50% or more equity, last recording date six years or more, 1-4 family, in or out of state.

2.) 500 owner occupants, 50% or more equity, SFRs, last recording date six years or more, age 55+. (This is more or less the list @Michael Quarles is awesome, and got me to take the leap. Thanks BP. You guys are the best.

  Follow or comment if you like. Though there really aren't any direct questions, experienced marketing advice is always appreciated.

Best,

JTM
