@Mehran K., thanks for the suggestion. I've written a letter to myself called it "This year in Review" (to be reviewed 01/2015) kind of detailing all that I expect to happen and will make happen. Just received a new goal setting worksheet that I will be completing today as a counter part to the letter.

@Joel Owens Thanks for the encouragement. I find myself learning everyday. I have more questions than answers & at times it would seem that I am looking for confirmation more than anything. My consistent "role playing" has definitely boosted my confidence.

TY

Thanks @Joe Gore & @Eric Michaels. I will take your advise and run with it. I did send him an email addressing some of my concerns and offered some references of my own. If he responds, and not show me the same courtesy, then I just move on. I have some things I'm working on.

Thanks again guys!

P.S. I'm up early every day 4:30am, if anyone reading this would be up for building skills for FSBO/FRBO sales skills, let me know, I have Monday's, Saturday's & Sunday's available.

I'll try to keep this brief and to the point.

i received a call from (what I thought was) a home owner (out of state) of several properties that he was looking to sell. Come to find out that he is a wholesaler that deals with Bulk REOs. If things go well I should be able to team up with him for future business. So, what's the question right?

Being as though I haven't work with REOs before, do I;

  1. Treat it like a regular wholesale deal?
  2. as far as End Buyers are concerned, how do I best secure my position with out having this person go right to my buyers directly.
  3. The wholesaler states that the bank is not allowing him to provide all the details about the properties until PFO & LOI are received (hence question#2)
  4. and with the amount of properties that he has at the moment for me to help him with, and REO's can't be assigned, how do I structure my agreement with buyers to secure my fee? Transactional Funding? or... use a flat fee for access to the information?

What do you guys/gals think? or am I over thinking this whole thing!

have a great day!

Hello all, I'm Darieal and I've been a member for a while and have not taken full advantage of BP, However, part of my goals for the new year is to change that. Slow - sure that I'm beginning to become more confident with my knowledge is certain areas of the business, I'm looking to continue learning, sharing what I can and building a strong network of like minded business associates.
