First Call from probate mailings! Help!

Marcus Kennedy

Posted

So I just received a call from a lady who has received one of my probate letters. She left a voicemail and I called her back when I was avaialble. She said she was not the executor but the daughter of the deceased and is living in the subject home. Being as this is my first phone call I did not ask many questions at all and agreed to come look at the home this Friday. I know I should have asked more probing questions I figured I would go to the home and check things out just for practice and experience.

Anyone have any suggestions as to how to proceed once I get to the home? Questions I should ask etc?

I'm looking most likely to wholesale this home. Thanks in advance!

Marcus Kennedy you can wait to run numbers if you want to be very conservative and careful, but I prefer to make an offer on the spot. You don't want another investor to swoop in after you leave with an offer and you miss out. Of course, make your offer to the actual executor and not other relatives.
