When skip tracing an absentee owner list, do you guys skip trace the mailing address(owner’s current resident address) or the vacant property’s address?

Thanks for the insight @Adrien C. @Daniel Guerra, I really appreciate it. They agreed to give me my money back, so I’m just waiting to see now.

Anybody ever had issues with yellowletters?

I set up my first mailer on July 4th and it was suppose to go out on the 9th. I made sure to add my address so I can know when the mailer is live.

Its been 21 days and I haven’t receive the mailer. Yellowletters keep saying the letters went out on the 9th and they will call me back with tracking confirmation. I have called over 5 times.

Investors are buying more homes than ever which is making it hard for first time buyers to get a house. “They have vis­ited 25 prop­er­ties and bid on half a dozen but keep los­ing out to cash buy­ers.” What are you guys thoughts on this?

@Jeremy McAlee can you send me a Pm as well with your recommended GC

@Carolyn Morales who is your investor friendly realtor?

@Matthew Irish-Jones that is a good idea, getting the sqft ball parks could really be helpful. 

@Twana Rasoul i see what you are saying. Based on what i have been hearing, no one trust the wholesalers when it comes to repair cost. So being able to provided rough estimates like Matthew mentioned above may be the best course of action as i continue to learn

The Dilemma

As of now I am a wholesaler that is learning how to find deals. However after reading “the book on estimating repair cost”, I am still not confident to being about to estimate repair cost. I fear this may be my biggest hurdle while getting started.

The Ask

Are there relationships where a wholesaler has a contractor to estimate the repair cost of properties and the wholesaler give the contractor a portion of the profits for the properties that are sold? If so how does that relationship look?

@Mike Dymski thanks man
