Cameron Bradley Funding an Investment

I have used that approach4) Some people use private lenders- Friends, family or associates that are willing to lend. 5) Do transactions like wholesaling or Bird Dogging that don't require cash. 6) Owner financing- pay the owner over time. 7) Rent to own also know as Lease /OptionI'm sure I have missed many other options but these are pretty basic and common.
Pamela Brown Hello From Alton, Illinois.

Anyhow, I was an idiot and bought a bunch of overpriced rentals, just about went bankrupt, then I learned about flipping contracts.It has been over 15 years now, and I am not gonna say it has been easy, but it is the best decision I ever made to leave a full benefit union job to chase something bigger.Keep focused, I know it its tough, especially with ADD. ( personal experience, LOL)I would begin by just bird dogging or locking up contracts then selling them.

Alvin Grier How Can a Mailing List Benefit a Wholesaler?
6 April 2013 | 3 replies
I reach out to the people on the list via mass emails from time to time, however I'm unsure of how to benefit from the list financially.I don't have a course or product to sell (at least not yet), so I'd like to benefit via real estate deals some how; at least for the time being.I suppose I could find an affiliate product that I believe in to promote, but again I'd like to benefit via real estate transactions if at all possible.One thought, was to let them know the kind of deal I'm looking for, and to offer to pay them a wholesale fee if I close on a deal they brought to me (the "bird dog" approach), however I'm unsure.I'm looking for ideas on how I can financially benefit from the mailing list.I put a lot of effort into providing quality information, so I don't think anything is wrong with pitching something here and there within the emails I send out.Any insight is appreciated.

Michael Williams Looking to pick up 5-10 homes a month via short sale/reo/ looking for deals
17 May 2013 | 11 replies
Once we start our Illuminati Syndicate, the answer to that question will be more closely guarded than the secret formula for Coke.Brother Michael Williams, short suggestion, you need an army of bird doggers, and wholesalers as the short sale boat has sailed.Another suggestion is to pony up a couple of food stamps and get into the Marketplace Pro Forum.Properties move behind the scenes as relationships are made.Be well gentlemen. . .and my sister!
