Not looking for a contractor, just someone to take care of small to medium sized repairs.

After that great year, I made the biggest mistake of my life by opening a medium size brokerage with 50 agents, 2 offices as well as a mortgage company.

Eventually the economic realities catch up and this market deflates, but there are still steady, consistent medium/suburban markets where the hype is not too crazy.

I like letters and postcards and believe you should do both to mix up your medium and how your message is delivered!

It works for a short to medium term buy and hold.

Thank you Jassem...would hard money lenders be a possible medium?

You could even turn this into a medium term flip and sell it after a few years by increasing rents and fixing them up over time. 

I'm investing in the South, and I'm getting 15-20% with medium level risk.  

Door height & width are expensive to change.

I train in wholesaling but also lease options and subject to and wraparound mortgages Virginia is pretty strict and having a real estate license really does help youI would start a marketing campaign toward houses with good school districts in medium priced housesI like expired listings because they want to sell I would knock on their door and give a free report and then follow upMost expired listings are overpriced because They don't have a lot of equityInstead of an assignment I use an option release because in many states assignments are frowned uponSo here are the steps-Contact the expired listing seller-Show the cost is sell by listing with an agent-Compare that with lease to own in getting your sales price without a sales commission down the roadYou can either act as a principal in the transaction by creating a lease and option with your LLC or sign a listing agreement and charge a fee to facilitate the lease to ownIf you're acting as a principal, you take your option and place a memorandum of option against the property at county recordsOnce you have the house under contract you market for tenant buyers in that area that have 3 to 5% downEither the tenant buyer or the seller or both will pay your option release feeP.m. me if I can help youBest wishesBrian
