@Felecia Sewell Good to hear that you are not quitting!! I know know for some there breaking point is when they have no leads or feel that they are not getting any where. Real estate is not for everyone... Its not a become a millionaire over night. (or at least non that I have heard off) in some cases takes time, patience, and a never quit attitude. Wish you the best and don't worry those deals will be coming in.

Thank you @Larmon Cummings Jr for sharing your experience on one of your deals. That's the way I see this business treat others the way you want to be treating and building that relationship with the seller/buyer. 

Thank you much for sharing.

I do have a questions for sending direct mail. How is it when putting a return address (is it necessary?) Would it be I get my yellow letters and take them to the post office drop them off at the drop box and that's it?

@Ryan Dossey  Thank you, I didn't see your post I was typing my response lol. I will have to tell her that it looks like I wont be able to assist her I will still ask if she is willing to drop more in price but it sure looks like she is not going to since what is owed is 160K.

Thank you all fro the timely replies.

@Curt Davis Thank you for your input and experience. The property according to seller is a turnkey. I would feel she would at least be some sort of motivated since she has been trying to sell for a while. 

@James Stevens It does look like that is the lowest she is wiling to go is around 160k. She did say it herself she does want to break even. 

@Guy Gimenez  1) I did feel it might be over priced since she has been trying to sell for a year I did check comps (zillow, realestateabc, homevalue hunt) in the area and county appraisal. Am I missing something else?

2) She did mention that the property with the agent was more. What she did to get the price that she has right now (165K) is deduct agents commission.

3) Yes she did, because at the moment she is not at the liberty to do so becsue she wants to to able to buy another home.

I want to thank everyone for the replies and assisting me, at this moment looks like it wont be a go. Since she currently owes 160K on the property and she basically wants to break even bringing it down to 100K don't see that happening. But I mean I will still call and ask her tomorrow and well if its a no I will have to tell her I wont be able to further assist her but If any change of mind well she has my number. Pretty good experience Id say getting out there and making calls. :)

@Kyle McCane I have never seen for a NOD using listsource. I haven't tried to go to the county office for a list to mail letters just once to get the information on per-forclosures.

Is this for like getting address to mail yellow letters?
