Look up the buyer's agent on those deals and give that person a call.

I strongly encourage meeting end buyer in person as well to create a relationship so you can feel out your customer and they can do the same to avoid problems down the road. 

What if this guy is just as mean in person as on the phone?

Hi @Mark Nugent , after you type the @ symbol, as you continue to type the name of the person a list will pop up at the bottom of your screen.

My questions are does anyone know who to speak to in person as a start (more importantly who to stay away from) as well as the best way to start a conversation and what is the potentially the best approach to seeing our plans thru?

@Colin M. As

Your property needs to show in pictures and in person as well as or better than http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/2...If a buyer is looking at your house I guaranty you they are looking at the one above!

I hope to attract a marketing person, a subject to person, a mortgage wrap person, a wholesale person, a flipper and a buy and hold investor. 

If that doesn't work you could always give a homeless person a free place to live for a couple of months.

I know I don't have terribly much to contribute at this point, but I've set goals for myself to make at least one post on BP every day, connect with one new person a day (would appreciate some help here :P), listen to two podcasts a week, and begin attending monthly REIA meetings.
