Now you can stumble on an old Craigs List add or news story, something to give you another line to search.

Most businesses if something dollar for dollar equals zero or better they will keep doing it as it gains exposure.You have to make sure the marketing is right for your message and targeted audience.For example if you sent 10,000 random letters out you might get a few hits from someone you just stumbled upon but it wouldn't be the results of a focused, concentrated, and targeted mailing effort.Most want a 2 to 1 ratio or better meaning for every dollar spent 2 are coming back in return.I like to target specific properties I think are quality that I know my commercial real estate clients would like or that I might possibly have interest in for myself.Once you have a winner you keep doing it to build a snowball effect and cement yourself in the marketplace.

So glad I stumbled onto this thread! 

However there may be a stumbling block that is bigger than that for them and they may pay much more.

I figured I’d move forward with the engineered wood I stumbled upon.

I'm looking into using a HELOC for investment property, which is how I and most probably stumbled here years later.
