Hi all,

I am looking for a new multi-line dialer. My requirements are:

1. No delay after the lead picks up the phone.

2. The ability to purchase bulk phone numbers not only by Area Code, but also associated with a particular city.

3. An ability for a caller to be assigned multiple numbers, and for those numbers to cycle automatically during a calling session in order to reduce the chance of a number being flagged as spam likely.

4. Call recording.

It would also be good to have a resource for telling when a number has been designated "spam likely" by any carrier. In the past I have had dialer companies try to tell me the numbers are "certified clean," but the number shows up as "spam likely" on the first test dial. I also have issues where a number is flagged "spam likely" by some carriers, but not others. If there is a standalone tool/service for this, or if there is a dialer with this functionality built in, would love to know.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Got a motivated seller with a half acre lot in a good location for new construction. He's asking too much for me to wholesale it, but he said he's open to an arrangement where he allows us to build a SFH home on the land if he gets a percentage of the profit once the land/home sell.

What is that kind of deal called? Are there any good resources/podcasts on that sort of thing?

Thanks.

Hi all, 

If I'm considering purchasing a duplex where one unit is a Section 8, is there any additional documentation/paperwork beyond the lease that I should ask to review when conducting my due diligence/property analysis? Any special considerations I should write into the contract due to the Section 8 unit?

Hi all, I'm very new to all this and would appreciate any advice you are willing to share. Goal is to do my first BRRRR or Flip in Q1 2021. Today, I identified a neighborhood to target for off-market deals. I then drove for several hours and noted the addresses of ~175 distressed properties. Now what?

Since I don't have the free time to research each owner/occupant and call them one by one, I am assuming my best option is direct mail marketing. I have never done that before, and have several questions.

(1) Any advice for setting a budget/plan for REI direct mail marketing? I guess I have to design a flyer, get it printed, and then mail it at set intervals? How much should I expect to spend on the flyer? How much marketing per house?

(2) Are there any REI-focused resources that have a step-by-step direct mail marketing plan I can execute on, something to guide me through the process? Open to books, podcasts, articles, blogs, products, whatever.

(3) For this first marketing effort, do you recommend I begin with something more manual (verifying postage addresses manually, inputting everything into an excel sheet, and mail merging letters into letter that I stamp and send myself) or try something more automated, with the potential to scale?

Thanks all. Really do appreciate any insights you can provide.

Hi Rob, thanks. Do the Chipotle or NexGen meetups have webpages that list dates/times?
