I'm new to Bigger Pockets and joined as a Pro Member. The calculators are great and I have been using them extensively in analyzing deals. We have an area of town that I am concentrating on as there are a lot of BRRRR deals. My problem is that I can't get any of my offers accepted. My wife is an agent (but does not practice) - this gives me access to MLS and forms but she is not very educated in writing a lot of offers and what to put on them to make it attractive. It can take a few hours right now to write one offer.
Fortunately, I have the ability to pay all cash, do a quick close and as a general contractor, so I can do the majority of inspections myself so I can waive the inspection. My problem is filling out an offer that is compelling. I would prefer not to bring in another agent because I calculate my wife's 3% into the deal.
We use the long standard NC Offer to Purchase and Contract, Addendums, Mineral, Property Disclosure, etc. - do I have to use this or as an investor, is there a better way to write a shorter offer that is compelling and doesn't take so much time? I've even started to write letters and include those but still no takers. I feel like maybe the offers look too amateur and they are being overlooked.
Thanks for any thoughts.
Matt
