@Kim A. would say that a great thing any flipper can do is develop their own off-market seller marketing techniques.

The Gator method is apparently one technique that may have some flaws that have been exposed here but may also be just the motivator for some people who would not otherwise even have taken a chance to get involved in real estate "investment."

Established, mostly-German automotive technology coincided with the development of large-scale mass production techniques and a manure-pollution crisis in burgeoning U.S. cities to create massive demand for his product.

I would study the different real estate investing techniques that you could comfortably afford to get into and find the one that interests you the most and go for it.

Most importantly you can refine your phone technique at a low cost.

I learned many of my techniques from Brian Burke and The Hands-Off Investor.

This is even true for student debt.I recommend the old-school, proven technique of paying off all debt.

While the IRS does not mandate a physical site visit, the IRS cost segregation audit technique guide (ATG) does suggest conducting “field inspections.”It’s important to note that the ATG is not an official IRS document.It serves as a guide and cannot be used, cited, or relied upon as an authoritative source.However, the recommendations in the ATG are worth considering.According to the guide: “A field inspection is recommended to document the physical details of the building, type of construction, materials used for construction, the assets contained in the building, the size and types of building systems, and any land improvements that were included in the purchase of the property and the condition of that property at the time of purchase.”So while the IRS does not require a site visit for cost segregation studies, following the guidance from the cost segregation audit technique guide can be beneficial.

Study appraisal techniques and valuation methods.I like to say you need a crystal ball of sorts, need to look at the history of the note, payments made, see where and why the note was created, understand the borrowers position, look at their ability to pay and find out as much as you can about the borrower, getting in their head so to speak.

Are there specific techniques or platforms you recommend for networking with property owners or other investors who might have leads?
