Spend some time every day on Bigger Pockets by connecting with “colleagues,” perusing blogs and videos, and engaging with others on the forums: http://www.biggerpockets.com/meet7.

It’s parameters are confusing at first however there are tutorial videos all over the platform that will assist you.  

When they click, they are sent to my landing page where they will see a video and have a spot to fill in contact information.

Thanks guys for the clarity.

Hi Everyone,I am in the Greater Phoenix, Arizona area and have been reading and watching videos on wholesaling and house flipping  for some time now, just haven't taken the plunge into the market as it is still unclear to me how to do that first deal.

Even with the same day police report, a positive ID by my daughter when the police showed her random mugs AND the video tape of the thief cashing the check at the bank, Wells Fargo took months and daily phone calls to get the charges removed from her accounts.

I did a free REI education video on the "Rule of 7" - a marketing concept that addresses this exact issue.

Ideally you would have pictures & /or videos from regular inspections to show the excellent condition of the house.

However I wanted to present more clarity for those that do not have exposure to our market and realize its difficulties before thinking they would get on the next bus headed here.

A few things:Photo/Video document every move-in/move-outDocument the move-out dateHold any personal property according to your state law before disposing of itPerform all repairs quickly (not just estimates), deduct back rents, late fees, and repairs, cleaning, personal property storage, garbage removal, etc. and return the balance of the security deposit (if any) within your state's statutory periodThe property not being broom clean is not a reason to withhold a SD balance -- the reason is that you have a statutory period in which to return it.
