You need to find the sellers motivation and see how you can make a deal work.

I received a lead today from a motivated seller who is very interested in selling his property, however the property has been listed with a relator.

Not to say it's impossible but it's incredibly difficult to wholesale these properties.

The advice you gave me, which you've written here, is incredible.

.), we don't know which motivated seller will be calling us that would have the type of property your buyers want.

Most importantly, it'll help keep you motivated when you're struggling to find deals.Peoria is actually a decent market for rentals though.

Seller is motivated, and has to sell a portfolio of properties -- 24 units (six deeds, 4-unit properties)Transaction 1: Have the seller deed you 2 properties (8 units) free and clear, then get a lender to give you a loan on 75% of those 8 units.

The tax sale for 2013 starts at the beginning of August, so those sellers might be more motivated.

If I do another mentor program I will be fine with splitting deals- I think then everyone is equally motivated to help and get the deals done.

Hello Iris,One of the biggest issues I have when training our VA's is letting them know that I don't know how to convert unmotivated sellers to motivated.
