A crappy 8$ an hour guy is more detrimental to your business than a motivated 15$ hour guy.

Off Their Rockers gives me ideas to use in RE....mainly how to present yourself to younger folks.....social skills are important in RE but especially in the N/P circles...later,

I plan on spending around $1500 on my next set of mailings on marketing to find motivated sellers for potential wholesale deals.

Share a few thoughts of your own. make friends, the mentors will follow.Good luck and stay motivated.

Seller is motivated and wants to sell by the end of the month.

I figure the more internet real estate I have the more chances I have at getting the right motivated sellers to contact me.As for my buyer site I would need more of a realtor type site that I can list the properties I have... but not on MLS since I'm not a realtor.Lastly would be my blog website where I can talk about my adventures in wholesaling and give more relevance to my seller/buyer websites since my blog/vlog will have updated content all the time.Thanks!

Agreed, might suggest you look at doing business in the 50,60,70 range as there are motivated sellers and you might consider options and flipping them, that is no more brain damage than an 8K property and probably less......IMO

The gurus preach that you're not truly motivated until you have no income and have to make money, but I would argue that marginal income can also result in bad (read desperate) decisions.It doesn't sound like you are anywhere near that kind of bad decision making, but stuff happens.
