Well, other than selling candy bars as a kid, that was my first door knocking venture.

The Midwest is my pick.Especially Ohio and Michigan.Still lots of value here.With the media pimping "high unemployment" and "declining population" most institutional investors are still sleeping which is good for us smaller operators as we get to pick and choose.I feel like a kid in candy store lol.Just bought one for $25,000 that needs $20,000 in work and will sell for $100,000+Happy Days :)

Some of the less expensive (<$500) ways to start marketing: Website, bandit signs, hand-written yellow letters, postcards, door hangers, business cards (that I hand out like candy), fliers...I'm getting started on a shoestring myself and, if you take out the $1000 direct-mail campaign I'm doing, I've spent less than $500 and have had half a dozen leads and one potential deal on the cooker.

I feel like a kid in a candy store daily.

The portfolio loans for me keep my buying capacity going until I refinanced them into a commercial loan cross collateralizing the assets.Once you get in with a new portfolio lender and they crack the door for you... treat them like your wife, buying them candy and being very responsive.Frank
