I'm gearing up to jump into wholesaling to compliment my income on my rentals and flips in 2018. I have about 15-20 properties that I have noticed while driving around that either look abandoned, have notices posted, etc. What are some successful tips you've found with converting these to contracts? I'm familiar with building a MAO (maximum allowed offer) and researching the property. Once I find the owner's info, any tips? Should I target direct mail them? (not a huge fan of mass direct mailing) Should I call? Most of these homes are not owner occupied or even occupied at all. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Also, any recommendations on forum would be helpful. Making my way through the podcasts now since I'm new to Bigger Pockets.

Hey Rosenly, did you ever make it down to NOLA?

Hey everyone! I believe there is a Columbia Street Investors meeting this week on the 20th, right Chris? Hoping to make it and to see some of y'all there. Also, I'm building my buyers list of local investors to receive emails of wholesale deals I find in the St. Tammany area. If you're interested in getting on this list, please send me your email. 

Thanks!

Enjoyed meeting with y'all last night and looking forward to future meetings!

Thanks for that, Keric! See y'all there!

Looking forward to seeing content, Denver! I invest outside NOLA and will search out your mini series.

I am newly starting out and just recently purchased my second property. My first is my current residence (I'll eventually move out of and rent) but this second one will be my first rental. Nonetheless, I'm moving along with repairs and am hoping to get a solid idea on distance for comps. How far is too far to compare? I'll check out rentometer and see if Hotpads is in my area but other than that, I've found some info on Trulia/Realtor/Zillow, etc. So bed/bath, sqft, location and condition. I'll also be comparing amenities like lot Size, mine is on a well and septic system, has a large storage shed and large car port. Anything else I should look it? Thanks for any tips!

I'm interested!
