The property I am trying to target looks as if it has decent equity.My goal is to either: 1. get it under contract and wholesale it2. get it under contract to sell it via my partner.I have been taking the new media approach and am ready to dive in and just call, but am a bit chicken on exactly how to present it and ask for a meeting, etc.I am sure she is being barraged via a bunch of different routes, but I would love to present something via phone she might bite on.Suggestions???

Seems like to be an extremely flawed stipulation because it is like a chicken and egg problem, how does one unit get sold first via traditional loans to allow other units to use it as a comp (except for the means stated above)?

Hi Guys...I read the book...and I loved it... there are some great insights in there...from the website, I sent an inquiry for the coaching program...I had a call from someone who scheduled a phone call with what he called "program director"I've just finished the call with that guy who appeared to me like a salesman who tried aggressively to sell me the program on spot for $ 4,899.He tried to embarrass me by making me feel that if didn't pay immediately, then I'm not serious about the coaching, I'm chickening out and accordingly I'll never be rich having this attitude...he tried to sell me a service that looked very vague to me!!

It's like the chicken and the egg; it doesn't matter which comes first, as long as it gets done.
