Plus, 99% of the recipients throw the letter in the garbage anyway!

Even some of the deals I'm getting from wholesalers are garbage.

id=60&secret=313488330Sorry, John K. but this is a case of garbage in, garbage out.

well, this is a new one for me. normally it's the other way, but my tenant and the neighbor share a driveway (the driveways are attached to each other).and the neighbor is messy. i noticed that while updating the house. their garbage cans fall over, no one picks them up. boxes are blown all over, noone picks them up. cig butts, tampon boxes, you name it, it's all over the driveway.the tenant has an "option to buy" the house and they like the home a lot. but they are complaining about the trashy neighbor.i know the neighbor. she is weird (does not smile and weird sense of humor), but i know her. have her number in my phone too, so i can talk to her.i just dont know what to say that might change her behavior...suggestions?

If the original loan is garbage then I would refi it to the longest term possible to boost cashflow and then do the HELOC.

Here are my thoughts, nuisance code violations (garbage , debris, overgrown grass ect.) seem to be a quick fix for the investor, but also for the owner.

For 5K you could get licensed as an agent and utilize that instead of all the guru garbage. 

I wouldn't have to worry about the lawn or garbage anymore.

As you gain more experience in the biz, you will likely run into wholesalers, they will likely be coming to you and finding you and then all you need to do is sift through the garbage (and tons of it) until you find that gem.
