Thank you Dell. That is very helpful. So did you put up the earnest money in the second scenario that you mention?

Thanks Brianna. However there are people that do wholesale properties that they find on the MLS I'm just not sure how they go about it. I know that there has to be someone on BP that can help me with this.

Quick question, lately I've been trying to put offers in on props that are on the MLS and the agent that I've been working with keeps insisting that I need earnest money and proof of funds. So I told him just to contact the listing agent via email and put in offers that way in order to skirt that issue. Now my question is, if I get an offer accepted do I just write up an agreement with my end buyer for my wholesale fee or do I get it under contract and approach my buyers that way? And if you say get it under contract what do I do about the EMD and POF issue?

Thanks in advance for any constructive help

My girlfriend and I are starting our first postcard mail campaign and we wanted to find out some information. We are going to use a google voice number but would like to know what people are using as far as voice messaging goes. What should our message say on our outgoing recording?Maybe if someone has a script we can use, that would be very much appreciated. Also, what direct mail companies you may be using. We have already recieved a list of absentee owners from a local title company and wondering if we should target out of state owners first. We just want to get up and running fast. Shoot, fire and AIM!!!!

Thank you in advance for your responses.

Actually the guy is very reputable and does his homework. Yes it is more turn-key, however he gets his props in bulk and only cherry picks the nicest ones that need the least amount of work. Hence the lipstick. The market in Detroit is estimated to rise in value by 13% over the next few years according to him. I have not done my research on that so not sure if that is true, but there are others that I know as well that do well in the Detroit area.

I know a guy that makes a killing in Detroit. He finds the houses puts some lipstick on them and then sells them to Buy-and-Hold investors. Oh and he also puts Property Management in place and makes sure that they already have tenants.
