Your script or simply guidelines for starting a call should be geared to solving a problem the seller may have . . . needs to sell, may want to sell but had not considered the options, etc.Best advice is to be honest with yourself as to what you are looking for - a flip, a buy-&-hold, a wholesale - and approach the seller with a sincere opening explaining who you are what you are bringing to the table. 

If they decline or do not respond (in 3 days I think) you have the option to escalate. 

Lets connect and discuss some options 

It is always the best option to use cash as that eliminates the major expense (mortgage) with any property.

We have a few options to fund this, I was wondering what would be the best option and why?

My town is pretty ADU friendly, is that an option (requires bigger chunks of cash or lending options)?

New builds have been a fantastic option recently because they HAVE to sell their inventory no matter the market conditions. 

Can you recommend a paid platform that has this option? 

Before buying, do an analysis of the market that lets you in on its dynamics, link the type of property that matches your set goals and is in line with the risk you can take, survey the possible financial options open for borrowing money, and finally analyze the cash flow of this business before engaging professionals in managing this apartment complex.Conduct thorough checks on possible properties, covering in-person checks, money checks, checking leases, comparing market prices, checking rents, assessing the condition of the property, and looking over legal contracts.

I specialize in off-market properties and currently have a portfolio of options available in North Carolina.
