@Account Closed  Welcome to BP and thanks for reaching out to me!  I will certainly let you know if I or anyone else I know have any QA properties.  You can also share with me a bit more details on what you are looking for by going to SeattleInvestorsClub.com and filling out the short form on the Join Buyers List page.  

I hope to see you at a BP meet up soon or feel free to call me any time with questions.  I am here to help in any way you need it.  Seattle Investors Club also meets once per month in Renton on the 2nd Saturday of each month.  Have a great day!

@Cailyn Aune    Best source for local RE news in my opinion is Daily Journal of Commerce.  

If anyone has any questions 1pm or later today , please call or text me as I am on the road!  Happy investing!

Are there any Seattle & Tacoma (Pierce County) area investors out there that are interested in buying rental quality properties and then doing a lease option or seller financing (you are the bank) exit?  I've got some deals for you!  I need buyers who will close/purchase them and then seller finance them back out, or hold as buy/hold rental, or sell with lease option exit.  I am not looking for investors who want to do sandwich lease options or subject 2.  I am looking for investors who will actually purchase the property and are looking for the current cash flow returns plus upside on a future sale to their end buyer.

If this is you, please let me know!  Have a great weekend!

Hello to you both!  Welcome to the awesome BP community.  If you ever have questions you can't find the answer to feel free to reach out to me.  I look forward to meeting you in person at one of the many meet ups in the Seattle area.  @Nick GorashI am looking at buying 2 rental properties in Algona right now (I see  you are from Alogona)!  If you have interest, let me know.

@Tin Nguyen/ Hello!

The best way to jump start your investing business is to just dive in, pull a quality list to mail to and get the phone ringing.  I PROMISE you that if you get a call and need help on what to do, we will all be right here and willing to walk you through the next steps.  The worst thing you can do is over-analyze getting started.  Just jump in and get your marketing going.  If you are going to focus your study on something, focus on how to pull a good list, then go for it!  Good luck!

Hello from Seattle Investors Club!

I know you all have been doing your marketing over the last 30 days since our last meeting, and the phone is starting to ring with leads.

Nice work!!!

Now it's time to call the Seller back and grab an off market deal, which is the best type of deal you can find. This month at Seattle Investors Club we are going to cover How To Effectively Speak With Sellers.

There is certainly an "art" associated with speaking to sellers. If you are good at generating leads, but not so good at speaking with Sellers...you will likely fail in this biz. It is CRUCIAL to know how to speak effectively with sellers or the hard work you did getting your phone to ring will be wasted.

This month Julie & Joe's very own team member and uber CALL NINJA, Ryan Whitworth will take us through the different scenarios & objections he hears on a regular basis from Sellers.

We will cover how to respond, what to say & how to be prepared for the call.

How is Ryan qualified to cover this topic with us...?

He takes 150 - 200 calls per month from sellers that call off of the Seattle Investors Club's marketing. He hears it all and now YOU will get to learn direct from a local, super active wholesaling team to help you close your own deals.

***We will also have a special session with Brian Fouts, our creative deal guru in the group, who will show us his spin on speaking with sellers.***

Join us on Saturday, February 13th from 4pm - 7pm at the Renton Technical College for a very important topic that will make or break your business, as well as SPECTACULAR NETWORKING opportunity with other local investors in our market.

New investors & experienced investors are all welcome! Come join us and learn the nuts & bolts of a more direct path to real estate investing success. Your first meeting is 100% FREE!  If you've been to our meeting before you should have received your RSVP email already.

Can you make it?

@Matthew Rubsamen  

Hi Matthew - check out PropertyRadar.com.  Not sure if they service Colorado, but worth a look.  Super affordable and great info and they have a great mobile app too.  We use yellowletters.com to process all our direct mail.  You will find it is more efficient to let a service do it rather than try to do it consistently yourself.  The key word in that is CONSISTENTLY.  Pull a BIG list, then break up the mail drops so you have direct mail dropping every week or few weeks, depending on your budget.  Postcards are cheaper to mail than yellow letters, but potentially have a different response rate.  You can research BP all about that topic.

The list you pull depends on what you want your target lead list to be.  Property Radar will show you occupied and/or vacant or absentee vs other.  Just sign up and have a look around or watch their webinar training.  Good Luck!

Welcome @Sameer Patil! I look forward to meeting you sometime soon. There are a lot of great networking events in our local market and of course BP is a major asset for all of us. Are you looking to grow your SFR's or also multi-family properties? I'd love to add you to my buyers list and learn more about your investment parameters. I am a full-time local wholesaler in King, Snohomish & Pierce counties.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
