Would like to add an investor friendly RE agent to my team (Located in Maryland). But, I understand the many low ball offers and 1 in 10-15 accepted makes for a lot of work with little reward for them. In what way would be the best to show as an asset to an agent instead of a burden?

Great finished product! Very impressive!

Seth Sherman I am definitely more interested in buy/hold, however very nervous with the whole process with the large money down in the area and not fully grasping the 'other people's money' aspect for a rental. I already have one rental and can't wait to have more. I am continuing to research for no/low money down strategies for cash flow. Thanks for the encouragement all!

@Bob Allwein

Thank you for the info! That is actually the exact area that I am focused, west of Baltimore. Hopefully I hear something soon and I will let you know.

The 'Yellow Letters' are a simple and personalized way of direct mail marketing. Find a list of targeted owners/properties with specific criteria, I used List Source. Then give a brief "I would like to buy your house" statement on a yellow legal pad and hope for the best. Good way to find off-market deals and with all the competition on the MLS I figure I would start here. Hope this helped!

Thanks!

Hey all! I'm Mark Richardson and have been listening to BP for quite awhile and finally started getting on myself to take some action. I have sent out a first batch of yellow letters from a list I got a week ago and am hoping to get a few wholesales under my belt before focusing solely on passive real estate. Cash Flow is King! I know this is a long term process but I would like to build a mini empire to be able to leave my current employment and stick to real estate full time. Hope to see you all around the forums and maybe we can do business in the near future! v/r, Mark

Hello all! 

I am new to the REI business and have recently purchased a list in my local area and intend to start wholesaling/flipping and eventually moving into buy/hold properties. Look forward to learning more through the forums and networking with all of you!
