You need to know how to do all the different types of deals sooner than later so that you have optimized your deal conversion capabilities as MOTIVATED sellers are hitting you and your organized network you are to build.  

Local conversations are always better to get started...then once you find a location you're wanting to purchase in you have a really good baseline for what's out there.

Where I'm stuck is whether I should use a metering system that pre-prints a stamp onto the envelop or find a machine that can place a physical stamp onto an envelope (obviously I can't sit there all day stamping).I'm thinking from the perspective of mail that looks to "businessy" vs. mail that looks more personalized for better response/conversion rates.

The conversation process in some areas is expensive and the timeline can be pretty lengthy while you're waiting for the process to be approved.

@johncrimmins @rolandbrown @patrickmahoney I would love to hear your thoughts and join the conversation before I sign up for this "NOT SO Affordable" program?

We have seen a lot of bank to medical conversions here - lots of dentists like banks actually - but they can be VERY expensive to convert.

I aim to connect with fellow investors and agents to impart my insights and continue learning from the collective wisdom here.I am looking forward to engaging in conversations and gaining more knowledge.ThanksAhmed

I always ensure to bring it up to every one I talk to about my retirement plan or my investment criteria even if it's just a small part of the conversation they will remember you if a deal comes up.

I will identify value add opportunities like walk-out basements, room conversion opportunities, etc. 

I have less knowledge about Seattle but my oldest friend did a basement conversion ADU in Seattle (I am at her birthday in Long Beach Washington at this moment).
