-of the people who are interested, most will want a price that is too high.so out of that, you might get a small number of actual leads / motivated sellers.with that said, though, are you networking with investors and wholesalers? 

You’d be surprised how willing people are to help if they see you're genuinely motivated.

He’s at the mercy of someone else’s expertise, motivations, personal interests, perception, and knowledge.  

Codie Sanchez will get you motivated, I just ordered her new book Main Street Millionaire, but have not read it yet.Sail with the wind, not against it. 

You have to get contractor bids to qualify, but ten you can do the work yourself after closing and build sweat-equity.2) Be very picky about the next property you buy and make a bunch of lowball offers to find a motivated seller, willing to sell under market.

I’m motivated to bring the same dedication to real estate.I’d love to connect with others who started small and scaled their portfolios or anyone experienced in land flipping, wholesaling, or creative financing strategies.

I was a foster child who put myself through college on my own, and I have relied on some good friends for a place to stay as I grew up, which has motivated me to create a better life for myself.I have done a lot of research on real estate, and from my perspective, it seems as if wholesaling, which I feel my sales skills may help with, would be a good place to start to make some extra money to speed up the investing process.

If you have a relationship with the seller, if the property is fairly priced, if the seller is motivated, and you identify it as a deal, then you can send an LOI after the first call.

Lot's of motivated sellers.

If these were real motivated sellers, he wouldn't sell them for a bit over 1 buck a pop.
