I went to the town clerk and obtained their address but am hesitant on making the visit as I do not really know how to approach them for the sale and are more so afraid of a rejection from not approaching them correctly.Can anyone lend some advice or strategy for me to intelligently approach this home owner?

Otherwise, you're talking about one visit a year to each house for inspections and repairs.

I suggest you visit a mortgage broker and ask them what is usual and customary in your area on similar deals, they can give you a few comments free of charge I'm sure.

Whether they are leaving a voicemail or talking to an answering service, you will need to be analyzing every deal, following up with them and traveling to visit a handful of properties at least.

More tips on checking out neighborhoods/blocks if you're not doing so already: Walk around as well as driving thru, visit a corner store or whatever is there.

We have gone to visit a couple of homes but haven't closed our first deal.

Remind your buyers that you are there to protect them through the transaction.Ideally, as mentioned in another response, always attend an initial tour or visit with a new build or builder with your clients, and let your clients know if they visit a builders website or speak to someone that they need to indicate that you are their Realtor.Good luck!

I requested to connect with you if you would like to visit a little more as newbie investors.

Always ask for referrals and to see the jobs or visit a job in progress.
