Hello! 

If you are an experienced real estate investor I want to help you.

I have been in sales for 20 years.  I have put in my 10,000+ hours of cold calling making hundreds of thousands of calls in my career.  I still do it today  I also know my way around a CRM.  I have worked in Goldmine, ACT, Sales Logix, SalesForce and others. 

Do you have leads that need calling?  Let me help you.

All I ask in return is to be a part of the process for the leads I bring you.  

If you want to talk please message me.  Thank you!  :) 

Thanks @Joe Aiola!  I especially like number 3.  It was something I wanted to do anyway to get a crash course.  Thanks for the info!  :)

Thank you @Matthew Lopez!  Nice to be here.

Thank you for the info @Adam Tafel!  I forget that everyone has video making equipment in their pocket!  I like that idea.  Thanks!

Thank you @Ian Walsh!  I am not familiar with the 50 house rule.  I looked it up online but didn't see anything.

Thanks @Kevin Leahy!  I will check it out.  I've been falling behind on my podcasts because I typically listen while traveling....  :)

Wow @Keith Linne!  A big thank you!  That is a lot of good information.  Thanks for taking the time to drop some knowledge on me!

Thanks @Jaron Walling!  I just ordered the book from Amazon!  

Thank you @Linda Hastings!  I will check it out!  :)

@Brian Garrett that is my one weakness.  I don't know rehab costs.  Not yet anyway.  My plan was to get a couple GC's out before making an offer.  I can't do that in the current environment so my whole execution is on hold unless I can come up with a (relatively) safe generic estimate calculation.   The only property I have ever done work on is my own home which I bought new.  Is there a dollar amount per square foot that could be a worst case scenario?  or is there a "kitchen" number or a "bathroom" number that is generally in a safe zone?  Are there websites or books that might help me?   I know nothing is fool proof.

My general plan was to find motivated sellers who haven't listed their property yet through different marketing approaches.  I was going to start the week of March 20th when this who Corona virus happened.  Right now I have put the whole thing on hold  because of my fear of not estimating rehab costs properly and making a poor offer. I understand having the contingencies will protect me from moving forward if the deal is no good.  I just feel like I am shooting in the dark.

Am I being silly?
