You CAN NOT target motivated sellers.The only way to get in touch with motivated sellers is for you to make it extremely easy for them to find you.Going after lists will be your doom.If you have $30K to spend on lists, sure, due to sheer volume you are bound to get a deal with some luck, sure.But if you come along with a humble budget, forget it.The reason larger budgets work better is because you can send a huge volumes.

While I can't help you, I would love to connect and keep in touch to hear about how things go for you.

There was useful feedback there and I saw a light touch.

Locally, I know an investor that runs a crazy profitable trailer park where he is probably pulling in a 20%+ annual return on his investment - but he has to self-manage because no one will touch it, collects rent and deals with evictions armed, and has several "overseers" living for free on site to make sure no one burns the park down.

Most investors wouldn't touch a deal like this because it doesn't look sexy.

We eventually figured out that they were using like half of a roll each time because they were terrified waste might touch their hands.

For example, I  never hear stories of the turn key provider spending extra sound proofing between units or investing in better quality fixtures or other high touch building materials so that the end buyer can enjoy reduced maintenance costs and better tenant engagement.

Hi David, Seller financing may be beneficial only if it requires less then a 15-20% down payment and the seller financing interest rate is less than what we may offer.With most seller financing I have seen allows a borrower to refinance anytime, so make sure there is no prepayment penalty within the contract.Yes, you can always refinance out of seller financing, but the property should not be upside down in value compared to the existing mortgage balance.If you'd like to talk and pick my brain, feel free to get in touch with me.Thank YouCraig
