Wow, thank you very much sir.

flipthisrealestatelist.com is the definition of user-friendly.

Would somebody be able to point me in the direction of a list service OTHER than listscource? I tried the website,but found it to be very confusing, almost buggy. Do you guys know of a more user-friendly list site?

Also, does anyone know of a good site for yellow postcards? It seems alot of them have a minimum order, is this the norm? If there are any out there that are cost effective, please let me know.

Please and thank you

Before I start my direct mail campaign, I wanted to know how others capture leads without answering every single call. The material I am reading suggests NOT to have the leads call directly to my cell phone. Rather, I should set up a google voice number, and set a voice message to play when they call.

Can anyone explain in a little more detail how that works? Will it transcribe the call and send it to my email, or will I have to listen to all the messages and extract the info myself (which I wont mind doing)? If anyone does this method, what "script" for the voicemail message works for you?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you sir, that makes it seems a little less intimidating. 

Hello.

In my attempt to find a local REI club, in hopes of some networking, found a group on meetup.com for Las vegas. The biggest one, that I saw, was the Outback group.

I wanted to see if anyone here is a member, and what they think of it. Do I need to RSVP for the meetups? Whats the dress code like?

Approaching a local group like this is very intimidating for me, any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you all for the tips, as well as the kind words.

Hello, my name is Justin Foley, and I am excited to get to know you all.

I am 22 years old, and I currently live in Las vegas, NV. The only experience I have in real estate investing is a wholesale deal I did to pay for nursing school tuition. That being said, I now have other priorities in life, and I know becoming a full-time real estate investor will provide the life I know my family deserves.

What brought me to BP, is that I was going to pay almost $400 dollars for a mentorship program offered by a hard money lender a couple of states over. While doing a little more research, I was notified of Mr. J. Scott's "The book on flipping houses". Best $30 bucks Ive ever spent.

After countless hours re-reading and highlighting every other sentence in this book, I can say I without a doubt humbled by my lack of knowledge, but also edified in a way I was hoping for.

As I am young, my cash reserves are not the best (still a few more months of student loan payments), I will not let this deter me, as I know that If i find a good enough deal, the money will find me.

I do not know any real estate professionals in my personal life. The book talks alot about networking with other investors, asking for advice, referrals, ect. As I now know BP message boards exist, I intend to full advantage of that fact by reaching out to the community.

As I become more involved here, I would just ask that everyone be patient with me as I ask ALOT of questions. I will be respectful of everyone's time, but I know that if I dont ask, I'll never get the answers I need.

I truly believe that my path to success will be greatly attributed to my interactions on this site. For that, I am thankful for this community.

Any questions, my inbox is free. I have to go compile a list of questions that are eating at me now. I will be talking to you all soon :)
