Welcome!  You came to the right place - BP is fantastic.  I highly recommend the podcasts as they are the best free education you will ever get!!

That's great that you have a rehab company.  That will come in handy.  No pun.

Awesome!  You know I am inspired and am moving in the same direction hopefully in the near future.  The property looks great.

Congrats!!

Welcome @Margaret B.!

You will find a wealth of information here on BP.  I especially recommend listening to the free podcasts.  They are worth way more than $40k!!!

Feel free to ask any questions also.

Thanks so much for your responses.  I have a full time job and 3 kiddos so answering live is sometimes not possible - to say the least LOL.  I would appreciate any recommendations on answering services.  I have read many posts on this topic of answering vs. screen and have heard both sides although I do get that live would always be best if possible.  Also if someone is just starting with a small budget they may not have $$ to pay for a service.

What would be best to say to the people I am calling back that did not leave a message?  Just "hi I saw that you called regarding potentially selling your property..."?

Hi, I started my direct mail campaign this week and received 8 calls today.  I am very pleased with this.  Only 3 of them left a voice mail.  What are the possible reasons the others did not?  I plan to follow up with them as well, but not sure how to start the conversation.  Any ideas?

Welcome @Stephen Watkins

You have come to the right place.  Bigger Pockets is by far the best place to be to learn anything and everything about real estate.

I especially love the podcasts.  You will learn a wealth of info by listening to those.

Welcome to BP @Kai R.

BP is so valuable, especially the podcasts.  I highly recommend them.

Sounds like you have a great base of knowledge to start with, so I wish you success!

Please put me on the list for Decatur, GA

Welcome @Mimi R.!  This is a great place to be.  The podcasts are my favorite and I have learned so much from them.  Good luck with everything you are after.

@Joshua Feit I am an investor in Atlanta as well.  I am going to look for a portfolio lender as well as I would like to buy a small multi-family.  Would you mind sharing any banks that you find to be workable and I will do the same?  Thanks!
