I'd use $5K because you'd have eviction costs and time cost at minimum, plus you want to discourage BK or other delay tactics from interloping possessors.Once you know your sell point, you can figure opening bid at 60% of UPB or less to attract the greatest number of qualified bidder.

The media is very good at scare tactics and horrific stories because capitalising on fear is an effective sales tactic. 

I heard of this tactic thru 'Bronchick' on YouTube.

Walter Trock and David Hughes are quite simply running a Ponzi Scheme where they take in clients money, then hide behind an 85 page contract and use intimidation and fear tactics by threatening their clients if they go public.

I've only evicted tenants twice, but both times, it's started with this tactic, and each time they've ended up apologizing to me for making me evict them and the stress that it's caused me.

Included in tactics are denial, constitutionality, misuse of exemptions, far out legal theories, etc.

I only deal with local or regional brokers because they're more flexible.Another tactic that I've utilized is getting specific power of attorney to sell the home for the seller.

It seems to me, this is the exact situation that a tactic like that would work.

I've gotten much better at following up on leads and understanding how to really make the most of them, so give yourself some time on those -- and I do think the key is *calling* IMMEDIATELY (then maybe texting or emailing and let the person respond back in the way they prefer) but there's weird things like that.So for example, maybe you're getting tons of sign leads, but then you can't convert them, now some may just be the people, but maybe you should keep the signs and have two tactics for trying to convert.

@Lance H.Sandwich lease options can be a very good tactic to use in your situation.It will give you the time (2+ years) you need to sort things out,qualify for financing and figure out if it would be better to pursue your own Broker biz or stay with current job offer.
