It's the first link under the Free Downloads section - "Agreement to Purchase Real Estate" and if you want the assignment contract, it's the 2nd link - "Assignment of Contract"

Thanks Justin! I went to the wrong site.

@Peter Hanson that's an awesome track record. Well done!

RE: direct mail- I'm a big proponent of it. I get most of my deals off listed properties the same way you do- lots of low cash offers. I've started focusing more and more on direct mail though over last 2 years. Did 8 deals from direct mail last year and 3 so far this year with 2 more supposed to close this month.

I mainly do a version of the 'yellow letter'. No real trick I've found with it beyond having enough volume where you'll get something from it. I did 4,000 letters/mo last year and this year bumped to 6,000 letters/mo.

John,

Who are you send the letters to? Absentee out of state?

You can get the agreement on the resources page on my blog (see the link in my signature). Don't worry, it's free. :)

Justin,

I'd be interested in seeing that form as I am just getting into the wholesale market. I can't seem to find it on your site.

Thanks

I am trying to create a list of absentee owners with at least 50% equity. I've encompassed 3 area codes which is a pretty big area and have only come up with 400 addresses. However, when I add owner occupied with the same parameters it jumps to 4000+.

Has anyone here has good success marketing to owner occupied properties?

Thanks in advance for your time.

You cannot control how people react to you. Those types of responses are people you don't bother wasting time on. On to the next one!

How do you guys set up seller financing on a flip? Im mostly interested in the contractual agreement. Do you have a lawyer draft something up? Each case will no doubt be different with the terms. I want to make sure I protect myself before investing in the rehab.

Thanks

I've been flipping houses for 2 years now but still can't really walk into a home and know right away how much it will cost to fix. My past deals have all been mls so i've brought contractors in for quotes. I am ramping up a marketing campaign and I will be visiting home owners directly. Sometimes decisions have to be made quickly. Do you guys eyeball it and put a number on it or ask the home owner if you can get your contractor in there? Just curious how all you out there are doing this.

Thanks!
