usually comps are made to be like your home not the neighbors house that is 200,000 more than yours would be worth.just thought i would throw that in. i'm going to the auction soon and i want to know what that home sold for in the past or other homes in the area.

Some ideas on finding wholesale properties that other investors shared with me include: check your county recorder of deeds for lis pendens notices; form a real estate investment club; create and mail out a newsletter (paper and electronic); market yourself to church pastors, funeral home directors, and accountants who often hear about proprty deals and potential sellers.Thanks again for your tips

What takes place in the past or the future is not your concern until under your control.

(f)Just because you have not succeeded at something in the past, it does not make you a failure, it makes you someone who didn't succeed at one activity in the past, or better yet it makes you someone who found one more way not to do something. 3.Determine your strengths and weaknesses(a) Be sure that your goals align with your strengths in life.

I just typed up a letter with a few information brochures and sent them to all the local churches addressed to the Pastor/Priest.

Once about 15 years ago I helped the most darling 80+ year old lady get out from under her "pastor" friend who was systematically draining her bank account -- the BAST_RD!

What have you done in the past or plan to do in relation to this?

It takes some pastors and business owners.
