@Luke Davis look at the books section of the bigger pockets website. All the books on there I would recommend reading, see what resonates with you and find more on that topic. Good luck on your journey!

@Kusmayadi Djunaidi I sell real estate in Monmouth County NJ and have seen a recent increase in houses selling above ask. I don’t see anyone in my area cutting prices by 50% or even anything close to that number.

I'm looking to grow my business and improve my conversations with potential clients.  I'm looking for a like minded individual that would be interested in practicing scripts with me. Mike Ferry, Tom Ferry, Kevin Ward, etc.

I'm looking to work with someone to grow our business become better at what we do.   I'm a true believer that practicing your craft and becoming an expert in what you do will lead to ultimate success.  If you feel the same way and are serious about growing your business reach out to me. 

Thanks

I'm pulling recent lis pendens filings and I'm noticing a number of them have a bank and home owner listed as the defendants.  

Can some explain to me why a bank would be listed as a defendant?

Thanks

Hi Everyone, 

So I went out driving for dollars last week and compiled a nice list of distressed properties. As I researched these properties through the townships tax records, I noticed that most of the houses are owner occupied.  I don't know what the correct strategy here is or if there even is one so I wanted to get some opinions.  I was typically looking for absentee owners so I took those out to mail and I'm left with a list of properties that are in bad shape but are owner occupied. 

Do you recommend mailing to owner occupied distressed properties?  What do I do here?

Thanks

Hi Everyone, 

I'm looking to connect with a few fix-n-flip/fix-n-hold investors in the Middlesex/Monmouth area.  I've just started on this venture but I'm confident about landing my first deal soon.  I'd like to meet a few investors in the area that I can work with in the near future.  If you're currently doing business in Middlesex and Monmouth counties please reach out to me.  Let's grab a cup of coffee.

Hi everyone, 

I have a 2.5 acre lot in Sayreville NJ that I'm looking to do develop or sell.  I need some feedback on how to go about it since the lot would require some property lines beginning adjusted from to lot next to it which I also own.   I'd like to meet with some investors/builders to brainstorm some ideas.  

Thank you

Hey Guys, 

Thanks for all the greetings.  Nice to see I'm not the only newbie.  I wish you all much success and hope to cross paths in the near future. 

Hey everyone, 

I'm a newbie looking to get started in wholesaling.  I like the concept, seems like it can be a very lucrative business model if done correctly.  I'm doing a ton of research so I can get started on the right track.  

I came across Chris Goff on youtube, watched his wholesaling video and I was impressed with that he had to say.  Obviously he didn't go into super detail on the video but gave a very good breakdown of what he used in his business and which steps to take to have a successful wholesaling business.  

At the end of the video came the pitch.  He's offering everything he discussed in the video but in much greater detail.  Contains 3 DVDs, large manual, and a 4th DVD with forms, contracts, letters, phone scripts, exact questions to ask sellers, cash offer formula, inspection forms, letters, buyer forms, contracts and much more.  The programs costs $197.

$197 seems like a decent price for what he's offering and I have no problem paying to better educate myself and get the needed materials I can use.   I just don't know if the program has the quality material it's claiming. 

Has anyone tried this program or heard or Chris Goff?  

Thanks

Tom
