Jeremy,

I believe door knocking is a great way to follow up on leads. You need to be careful of all the crazies out there though. If are armed with a great script and know how to tactfully talk to people you are ahead of the game. As you can tell from the rest of the replies most people want do it. I have been in the RE business for 11 years and have found that most people are lazy and will not put the effort in to help themselves and will tell you why not to do something. If you are willing to do what ever it takes than you are ahead of most people. Good luck I hope this helps.

REMEMBER ONE THING: BE CAREFUL, IF IT DOES NOT FEEL RIGHT DON'T KNOCK ON THAT DOOR

Hello everyone,

My name is Jon Gillman. I live in Charlotte, NC and have been a licensed Realtor for 11 years. I specialize in unlisted multi family and apartment complexes in North and South Carolina and also in Bulk REOs.

From my brief time looking around the site it seems to be a great forum that is constantly updated. I look forward to meeting a few of you and networking together to help in any way I can.

Besrt regards,

The first items I look for in analyzing a new complex is "do the numbers make sense?" I speacilize in selling apartment complexes and we need to look at the preliminary numbers before we consider moving forward. If the property looks good ww then move forward with a LOI (Letter of Intent) this will help spell out the terms you are will to offer for the property without having to committ anything. If the LOI is accepted that starts your due diligence period, this is were you can find out the "real" numbers and do you property inspections. After the due diligence period is over you can make a more informed decision to move forward or back away from that particular opportunity. In any case, alway ask questions. The only dumb question is the one that is not asked.
