So I recieved my very 1st call back today. What should I do now?
Hello BP,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful evening.
So about an hour ago while sitting at work (which I'm currently still here now) I received my very first response to my mailing campaign to absentee owners with 100% equity. I don't think he is that motivated though.
He called and put his son on the phone due to the fact he did not know English. Unfortunately, I didn't have my sheet of questions so I had to wing it. i told him that i was an investor in the area and looking to purchase a few homes in the surrounding neighborhoods.
It's about 980sf 2 bed 1 1/2 bath on a 4,200 sf lot. It's currently rented with tenants. The inside of the house was remodeled he said about three years ago. Per the seller, the roof is 5 years old and only has siding issues on the outside of the house. I asked him what was going on and he said "Oh, I'm just trying to see what I could get for it". Doesn't really sound motivated at all.
So I'm curious what I should do since this is my very first convo with a seller? I told him that I would do a little research on the house tonight and give him an offer tomorrow. I do not know why I said that, it kind of just came out.
Any advice would be great!
Thanks a lot.
