Just spotted a foreclosure at 170,000 in a neighborhood where the comps are 220 to 250, sent the realtor this :  

"Hey Joseph,  

Darnell Robinson here, I'm a new Real Estate Investor just getting into this game so if you could bear with me I'd greatly appreciate it.

I'd also like to keep your name and number in my phone for future business if that's OK. 

This property is bank owned correct?

Have there been any offers so far?

What condition is the property in?

Is it occupied? 

Are there any back taxes? 

How long has it been in foreclosure? 

When would be a good time to meet at the property and take a look?

Thanks Joseph!  I look forward to doing business with you.

I'll be looking to rehab/flip homes in Oakland, San Leandro and Berkeley as I go forward so if you have any motivated sellers in these areas, let me know and I'll keep you in the loop on future endeavors as well!"

How do I put the house under contract if it's everything I hope it to be? What kind of contract (wording)? I'd like to rehab it and sell it, but I'm not against wholesale either. Any suggestions,  opinions or advice is greatly appreciated! !
