@Ehsan Rishat

Will you expand on how that process works?

I’m wondering, how do I go about getting an owners phone number in order to employ a cold calling strategy. A lot of people talk about coldcalling but I’m not sure how they go about getting phone numbers to call these owners. I’m aware of getting an address to direct mail somebody through tax records, that’s easy enough. But please help on how you go about getting phone numbers. Thank you

As the title lays out. I need a coach or mentor! This will be mainly real estate based. My current strategy is to brrrr a few SFR and hopefully do it well so I can move on up to duplexes and keep scaling up.

I’ve closed on my first property in Memphis tn recently and beginning rehab shortly.

I’ve done the reading, I’m still learning. I’m not gonna act like since I’ve read a few investing books that I don’t need a mentor. I have an agent in Memphis and he is amazing. I don’t need an agent I just need a mentor, someone who can encourage, warn, help analyze etc.

If you can be that person please be qualified. Also if you’re gonna look for payment please be upfront. If not also let me know that.

Can I bring value to you? Maybe! Hopefully! One day for sure yes! Today? I’m still needing to learn, but I know myself and my work ethic, and I will be a force as soon as I get some more experience under my belt

So I’m investing in Memphis, TN(first property) and very excited! Actually got this one off of the mls. It had gone stale so we went way low. Long story short it’s in a bad are but good neighborhood(relatively). Those of you who invest in cash flow cities I am sure know what that means. So it’s only been vacant 3 weeks now. Reason being I am waiting on a line of credit from the lender to cover rehab costs. It’s almost here but due to it remaining vacant some kid threw a rock and broke a window.

I guess I knew something would happen sooner or later? For those of you who got started owning rentals in the not so hot areas, what is your advice in order to start this way, be successful and at the same time not lose all the cash flow I make to maintenance!

I guess my question is if you buys tax deed sale or tax lien, is the property yours after paying the bid amount or do you assume the mortgage as well?
