Ask them if they know anyone and give them a couple of your cards to pass out to those that are consistently in buying roofing supplies.3) Tax laws in the states are so much different than in Canada, but I can't seem to think that there's a way you could write off an expense that you haven't purchased yet.

Go to sheriff sales and hand out your business card if you have one, create an online sign-up form and market it all over social media to get potential buyers to sign up...etc etc etc.......so many things you could be doing to attract buyers.

Those are generic and dozens of people mail them they same crappy post cards and letters over and over again.Your market is different.

Don't I need a managing broker to send a 45-day sponsor card to the IDFPR in order for my license to activate?

I would focus on repairing your credit. see a specialist (faster) or open credit cards little by little and pay them off each month. im not saying increase your spending, just saying instead of buying that tank of gas in cash use a cc and immediately pay it off. while your credit is repairing, start banking cash. build a budget and stick to it. 80K a year is good money, make it a goal of yours to retain as much of it as possible i.e. don't eat out, don't go to the local pub, drive a modest paid off car etc. once your credit is up and savings is up, use the 80k a year plus savings to get leverage. then use that leverage to buy your properties. if your looking for a get rich quick scheme, id advise u skip over RE. don't get me wrong, you can make money fast by flipping homes but you didn't mention having experience in that area so I assume you don't. another option if your really in a hurry is to find a partner with experience and cash, and see if you can buy into one of his/hers deals. you would have to market yourself for this and see what type of skills they may need that you have. maybe you can buy in and use your web development skills to beef up and/or maintain your partners website saving them money on outsourcing. that might be your ticket into a partnership. since you mentioned your helping your friend, maybe you can partner with him?

Standing  I am not I would not pay the price again but would use the info avaialble on bigger pockets the  post cards are great.

But the way Seth Williams mentioned doing this was using a personalized post card.

My husband is self employed and this month my credit card was 12k which is double last months, but it is a Chase card and we’ve paid it off every month since we have had it. 18k.

Probably the most you could hope for is that the buyer or seller found value in you bringing them together and one of them gives you a gift card or perhaps some money.

For example, at this time of year we give our tenants a gift card to a local store.
