Hottest Market in the US!!!
Hello ALL,
Its been a while since we've checked in. It has been a very busy 2 months. For those that do not know we are located in Raleigh,NC, the #1 housing market in the US, fact not fiction. We found that out and started wholesaling IMMEDIATELY. With absolutely no experience, no money or job, my partner and I started a company. In 3 days we formed an LLC, in August 2012 and 60 days later we have reached an agreement on 3 wholesale deals totaling over $40,000. We are days away from closing and it is exciting. The ease of wholesaling only motivates us to do more deals. 10 deals before 2013 is a goal we are striving for as a company. Without goals your company has no vision nor path. Last 60 days we've met some incredible people and networked with knowledgeable investors. The TIME is NOW is a common theme talked among all investors we speak to. Now is the TIME to be investing in Real Estate, no matter what your strategy is, we just chose to wholesale. See you at the top!
Stephon and Ed

I laughed when I read about your dollar bill showing thru the window. I have been doing that for about 3 years now and to different groups for different reasons. The highest response we received on this technique was when we mailed to investors who have purchased properties in our area and they appear to have paid cash. I use 9x12 colored envelopes with a letter inside and stack card with call to action inside and the dollar bill is actually attached to the letter and folded. The front side of the dollar bill has a yellow stickie attached that says "the first dollar of many!". The back side of the folded bill actually hangs out the envelope and peeks out below the folded flap with the adhesive.
Unusual sized, red envelopes with dollar bills peeking out tend to get opened!
We have run it to other lists, but never to home sellers and we have never had the same kind of open rate as the one we get from cash buyers. Keep it up and good luck with your business.
All the best -
Chris
