Hi everyoneMy name is Trell, i am a new investor focusing on lease options in the Chicagoland area. my business is fully set up, pretty much running on auto-pilot, i have an average of 15- 20 fsbo leads that come in to me daily by opt in from my website, craigslist, area scouts and other fsbo sites and mailings.i have pretty good education in this niche. i also have virtual assistants that are trained to get property info sheets filled out from calling my leads that i send them, they are great at it!

I used Craigslist to scout a couple of properties over the weekend and met a broker trying to sell a 'motivated' sellers duplex.

I would recommend a road trip and scouting these area's not only during the day but after the sun goes downAlso reaching out to Realtors.

I am planning a trip to Indianapolis March 23-26 to check out the area.  My husband recently secured a remote position for his job that will allow us to move out of our overpriced city, and we are strongly considering...

I've been scouting some Properties and have done the Math and think that they are good to buy.Here's the problem, I have just Graduated from University and do not have a job, which most mortgages require you to have.What would be the best way of convincing to the bank or proving to them that I can be given a Mortgage.Are there any other more creative forms of finance?

I'm doing a scouting trip the weekend of 4/21 and if anyone knows of any properties available or folks that might have some that could help me learn about the individual market it would be much appreciated.

Hello Seasoned BP Members - I am planning to scout the Indianapolis markets for buy and holds.

Hello BP Members - I am planning to scout the FLORIDA markets for buy and holds.

I know a few bigger players were this is working but they are working with hedge fund type money 5 to 20 million.. and have the powder and ability to scout the VERY best deals.. most folks simply can't do that .. if they are starting out.

I attempted to outsource lead generation to "scouts" (not a fan of the term bird dog) but have gone through countless people who felt they were motivated till they called 10 people and didn't get a deal.
