I went out on a listing appointment and made them an offer they couldn't refuse.

You should make an appointment with a local mortgage lender or broker and discuss all the financial programs you currently qualify for with your current income and amount of debt you currently owe.I really don't recommend big banks anymore but rather the much more flexible mortgage lenders that work with local Realtors in house at their brokerage offices.

First figure out what the ARV is, then make an appointment to see the house to estimate repairs, and finally make an offer based on the 70% ARV - repairs.

If you market for motivated sellers, it will give you a competitive edge to not have to screen them on the phone, but just make an appointment and go!  

The results are predictable: I either get an appointment, not interested/not for sale, call my realtor, voicemail, or wrong number.

I have a few appointments with different CPAs to figure out which one I want to go with.  

Confusion: the draws are approved by the lender after a bank-appointed assessor determines the defined work has satisfactorily been completed.

If you still can't get an appointment and they are reasonably local, call the bank, ask if he is there today, hang up nicely and bowl over to see him/her.Salesmanship has more to do with deals than most want to acknowledge.Good LuckNeil

- Property must have a min. of 5,000 in repairs- You can act as your on GC (general contractor) or appoint someone else to do the work
