This is a steal! Owner is looking to liquidate assesets and he wants this property gone. If you are looking to get started in real estate or you a Milwaukee investor, this one is for you. Renters are locked in until June of 2018. No Work needs to be done. Shoot me a text at 414-622-1102 for more info. 

@Anthony Gayden what you figured out about driving for dollars taking a good amount of time to find the properties, find the mailing address, and then order the mail is why it's been effective for a low cost/newer investor to start. It's the same reason newer investors often time use bandit signs (low cost barrier to entry). 

All that being said if your driving neighborhoods you are seeing houses that look like they need maintainance or FSBO before most of the guy/gals doing direct mail get to them. There are apps and services coming out that will allow you to input an address and it will send a post card to the owners address on file with the tax assessor.

These newer services often charge upwards of a $1 per postcard for the time savings you have to figure out if it's worth your time saved or if you have the time currently, but not the funds you can mail post cards very cheap with places like Yellow Letters Hq.

The new wave/fade is to skip trace the owners and simply cold call them. This takes a certain person willing to hear no a lot to get that one yes and not afraid of getting a few jerks on the phone. 

@Ryan Biankowski nice!! Mukwonago has some nice areas for flipping! Would love to here more on the live in flip and what you decide to do for the exit strategy. 

@Scott R. Let us know what areas, price points, and SFR/Duplex/Tri-Plexes you're looking for in the Milwaukee/Waukesha WI market. We primary wholesale and every once and great while grab one to put $5-10k in and put back on the market (wholetail).

Depending on your risk tolerance and what you're looking for we may have something for you currently. We have one right now that i can think of off the top of mind w/ purchase price $35k and it's rented out for $1,100 a month. Reach out to Jason if interested at our phone number in the signature.

 Please explain, what are you expecting a CRM with email to do & what platform currently does it out of the box?

My problem is that I really don't like the way Podio handles email. I wish it had a real email system built into the CRM.

 It's not great out of the box, but there are plenty of platforms that handle the email side of things. The easy way out would be the Globimail. The other options off the top of my head are Podio Tools, MailGun, or even changing the server settings on Globiflow to use your GMail account. There are solutions out there.

THIS IS A NICE ADDITION TO YOUR PORTFOLIO! There is nothing to fix and you already have tenants committed until June of 2018. This property is ready to go and will pay itself off quick. The question becomes - how long will it stay on the market? (HINT - NOT LONG) Call/text Jason ASAP at 414-622-1102 

Once you're in the game long enough, you know it's simple...just not as easy as some make it sound. If you know your numbers & have a strong follow up game... you're already better than 95% of the investors out there.

Over half of our deals come from follow up!

I find that most Podio CRM's that are sold for investors are made for the complete Techy type. When a CRM has multiple workspaces, more apps than you can count on your hands and toes, and more gadgets than Inspector Gadget himself ...how easy can it really be to use or train a team to use???

We use REI Automation Squad's Beast Mode Podio suite. Our leads manager works the new leads starting in the morning and then starts working the "calling for more info" that have a next contact date of today

Then she moves to the follow up leads that have a next contact date of today. After three attempts we try every 45-60 days with a call from the leads manager plus the automated text (local phone #) & Sly Broadcast.

We track all outbound calls in Podio know by each day how many voicemails, no msg left, and contacts made happen during her outbound calls. This makes for an easy weekly meeting with regards to her KPI's.
