Looked at houses - Now what

[Mark Gingrass]

I read the topic "Beginning in Wholesale list of questions:" and it was great.

I have a few more questions.

I went out and looked at some vacant properties and wrote their address's down. I then looked up the owners.

What types of questions should I ask them? Should I tell them, "I'm a local investor and i'm interested in your property? If your interested, can we schedule a time to look at the house and possibly make a deal?"

These houses are the crappy looking rehabs. ha ha. Mind you I do not have much experience in pricing the rehab costs.

Do you find more deals through pre-forclosures, or through rehab houses?

Thanks for any responses.
