As part of this, you'll need to:1. hire a civil engineer, 2. have approved engineering plans prepared, plan checked, and permits issued, 3. pay the development impact fees and all other soft costs, 4. grade the site, and build the infrastructure for the project, i.e. utilities, street, drainage, etc. 

In other words, if you have a beat-up roof on one of your properties, electrical wiring from the 1940's on another, and you can see soft spots of wood rot around windows and downspouts of the other, I would want to have a lot.

You could also connect with hard money lenders and get a soft proof of funds (pre approval letters).

I also have a "Soft Phone" on my laptop, so I can make and receive calls anywhere in the world that I have a decent internet connection, even if I'm goofing off in some part of the world where cell phone roaming charges would be outrageous.Think of the 80/20 rule when you consider the cost of having a tool like this. 20% of the stuff you do makes you money. 80% is the stuff you should not be dealing with personally.

I am looking for leads to flip and wholesale.Also, I am looking for regular realtor leads, listings, buyers.Does infusion soft have a sector that sets up a website for your self?

In prior times, when a west coast market was hot, an east coast market might be soft or cold.

Testing a tracking and tweaking is the key to success in this business.Put out here what you have closed in the last year and the volume of letters sent and frequency.As Sharon says I believe in highly targeted and filtered marketing.Volume is the number one mistake you can make.Either your letter sucks and you send to everyone and get no calls or your letter is good and you get bombarded.You then develop a rep from then on of not handling your business.It's kind of like a new restaurant opening and having tons of people come in from the advertising and the restaurant becomes a circus with bad food and service and long waits.Smart restaurants do a small "soft open" with little advertising to wait on customers and see what main issues arise.Then when the big advertising and grand opening hits they still have problems but many have been ironed out and systems have been put in place.
