Hello BP!!

Some time ago I remember driving in my car listening to a BP podcast and overheard a phone answering system that automatically takes calls and allows callers to leave a message for call back. I'm thinking about using this type of system to send motivated sellers to instead of my direct line. This should free up my time and also allow me to only hear from motivated sellers directly it seems at least. 

Has anyone used a automated phone system for this purpose? If so what are some companies I should look into? 

Thanks

Welcome @Dominique Hill 

Listen to the podcasts, read the forums and get involved with discussions. Also check with local laws to make sure you are following properly to legally wholesale. Then listen to more podcasts, read more forums and get involved with more discussions and jump in and get started. BP is the best place for you and your knowledge base. Congrats on joining!!

Hello @Brandi Bryan Im no expert and definitly not a lawyer but I will say I also have been looking into proper and legal contracts. I would suggest you research what you can on BP about Michigan wholesaling and contracts that support but also google for some info on Michigan law in this regard, and seek advice also from a attorney that can maybe explain it properly and ensure you have no worries. There is a legal way to approach the business here in Michigan and that is what you want to be sure you are adhering to. I've been researching and asking as many questions as possible myself and have had great advice here from different forums and other investors and so far have come up with several techniques I plan to use so far. Hope this helps some. 

Best wishes

Yes indeed @Karen Margrave trust me if i had hair i would be pulling it out right now, I'll wait and see what comes of all of this on Monday.

Thanks @Jeremy Tillotson I'll check into that title service if we cant get it resolved, I looked at the site and seen it takes 60 days so I dont know if buyer will want to wait that long but will see. 

Thanks again both of you

As I begin moving toward closing on my first MFR we have ran into a snag. Hopefully this will be resolved soon however.

Problem: Owner brought lot next to property and combined the porperties in 2012. There was some sort of foreclosure on the lot or property that was on the lot prior to his buying (quit claim deed from that owner) and now it seems that the title company wont insure until the foreclosure issue is resolved, which means additional title services are need in the amoubnt of $750 and up. No one is willing to pay for this service, however the seller claims they know of a title company that will proceed and we will see if this is true Monday. I'm sure nothing will come of this investigation that will haunt the buyer, as the owner has not had anything come up in the 3 years he has owned and combined the parcels,  but I understand his concern to have everything cleared up before closing, this is why quit claim deeds can be risky if something does come out negative regarding the added lot. 

Has anyone else run into a similar situation?

Does anyone know of a title company that handles these type of situations so that it does not effect the new buyer?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
