If you want to negotiate and fund your own deals, go for it....that's DC's attitude. He's a successful guy who's put together a system...with built in collaboration. You need to invest in your education....you get out what you put in.


Smells like an advertisement.


I agree! This advertisement is getting ripe.

When mailing this list mail a voucher over a Yellow Letter they out pull...

Good luck

Michael



Michael,

How many names do you have to buy to get that deep of a discount?

What does the voucher that you mail out look like and what wording would it consist of?

I know of a company that will get pre-NOD leads for you at like 30 cents per lead. Their minimum is 1000 lead order.
They can customize your order down to zip code or city specific.

I can not give their name or website link here because it would be considered an ad.

From there I design a Directmail Campaign and start marketing to these homeowners.


Andrew,
I would like to hear more about your direct mail campaign.
What types of mail pieces work for you and what does not work?

Kurt,
Thank you for the further clarification.

The investor just told me that his group primarily does this option in CA, not necessarily in other states.

That comes out to be $27,300 per year gross income for the property.
Renters/tenants pay all utilities is a plus.
How much are the property taxes?
You need to take into account the potential vacancies, usually about 10%.
Also take into account the amount of the mortgage payment you will have.

Not sure what else to take into account to see if this is a good deal or not.

Kurt,

You now have 2 people and probably more who cite reasons as to why the option of keeping the homeowner in the home is not presented to the homeowner.

And it is illegal in at least 2 states and probably more.

Trace,

Thank you for the explanation.

I just got off the phone with one of my contacts in TX and he said it is illegal to do that there in TX, too.

Giving the homeowner the option to stay is only one of the exit strategies that they have.

Mark,
He says that is the first option that his group presents to the homeowner. If the homeowner does not want to stay, or legally cannot stay, then, OBVIOUSLY, the home is not sold back to the homeowner.

I do not know all of the groups exit strategies but that is their primary exit strategy.

I work with an inestor who will negotiate the short sale with the lender and then can buy the short sale from the lender.
He, then, turns around and sells the home back to the homeowner at a discounted price, thus being the bank for that homeowner.
He has told me that he can do these anywhere in the country.
