Probably very little, if I were to go to your area to do a wholesale deal, I think there would be no competition from those trying to wholesale.....don't mean to sound arrogant, but that saved me 50 words at least, by that I mean wholesalers usually begin in that niche, learn guru stuff, listen to wheeler-dealer types on here and most don't know much if anything about RE.You also don't need signs or telephone recorded messages.Many, but some much more than others, seem to try to do WH as some unique business placing emphasis on the "deal" rather than from a conventional RE approach. 

Thank you Mark.Yes, we have a wholesale guru here who was suggesting doing a contract on a yellow pad, didn't have the legal description, had names and telephone numbers, total garbage.

There is a "City Directory" for all good size cities with cross reference telephone numbers to the address, now, I've not used these in several years, I know many don't have landlines at home and rely on a cell phone, if you can't call, send a note.So, this IMO, but I wouldn't mention short sales unless I knew they were in distress.BTW, make sure you never use the "F" word in a letter soliciting a seller, the "F" word is FORECLOSURE! 

Send me a message with your telephone number so we can set up a meeting.

I have a little experience in this area, having built my career, for the most part, over the telephone. 

For Example it would list, Property x, bought date: Amount, financed with, payments, terms, name of contact, telephone number.

That's for anything posted on a telephone pole, including signs for lost dogs, yard sales and band promotions.And:Robertson said there are four inspectors for all of Los Angeles to enforce the city law that nothing be tacked onto public property.

I have gone through my initial telephone conversations with them and are so far impressed by their degree of professionalism and knowledge.

We scrounged foundation posts from old telephone poles that washed up on the beach.

What if anything can be done about the ugly wiring (power/telephone/cable?)
