Post: A Little Nervous...

Ok, so I've been driving for dollars for about a week or so now and found some properties that may be worth wholesaling. I've done the research on them and gotten contact info for the owners. Now my next step is to pick up the phone and call them, but I'm extremely nervous! I know I could probably send something in the mail but I really want to get the ball rolling AND step out of my comfort zone. How do you conquer this fear..do u just jump right in?

In checking the rentals in the area I see that the properties are renting for about $800/mnth right now.

The property is located in Houston, TX

4bd 1/1ba

It's in a mixed area some owner occupant and some renters. The current owner said he's rented the place out for as much as 975/mnth.

He said he wanted 34k I'm trying to negotiate him down to about 30k or less if possible. The owner was/is an investor himself, but he's looking to get out. As his tenants leave he sells them off. This particluar house has been vacant for a couple of years and he doesn't want to deal with it anymore. He's doing no maintenance at all.

I have access to MLS and that's what I've been using to determine the ARV. When trying to determine the ARV what should I be doing? What should I be looking for? I just want to make sure I'm doing it correctly. I'm currently wholesaling and marketing property to buyers and I just want to make sure I have the correct information.

I posted an ad on craigslist and backpage today with a deal, they weren't a fit for the deal I had, but I was able to add them to my list!!
