Cuts back on waste, but also allows me to test and tweak as I go.Another thing I do is to keep a checklist handy.

Hey folks - we're gonna be tweaking a few things in the next couple weeks concerning the Post Score to make it a little easier to understand.

I felt like I did a great job at building rapport with these investors.Problem I am having is that while there is some motivation they are not receptive to the ARV*70% - Repair- my fee= MAO formula.I tweak the numbers from 70%-80% and my fee schedule from $10k-5k depending on amount of the ARV.I get the impression that they have been approached with numbers like this before and feel that the offer is “stealing” the property.Most of their properties I have seen look really nice and well-kept and most have good tenants in place.I also recognize that these are not truly motivated sellers but they do have some degree of wanting to sell some of their properties, just at higher margins than I would like.So the question is: Should I just give these sellers an offer and stick to the formula and move on if rejected.

I made several tweaks to the calculator to compare results and I apologize if I posted a quirky version.

This study was done a few years ago, so the last couple years may tweak numbers a bit...

It's a tweak I made with my agent based on my preference at the time.

Doing it myself allows me to tweak and adjust and play...I said I'm a geek, right?...

Use what works, make some minor tweaks, but once you get off the beaten path you lose the benefits of the tried and true. 

I am going to tweak the list with each mailing until I find the sweet spot.

-A bunch of dying geriatrics who are too senile/delusional to understand that their 1900 homes can't sell for 2X the market price-Delusional scumbags who are in denial that their houses are in foreclosure and would rather file bankruptcy than make some money and get out of the ugly situation they put themselves in-or the usual idiot home seller who refuses to go down on their price even after failing to sell their home for over 3 years.No tweaking of an email campaign is going to change a foul attitude like that.
