I'm in the Phoenix market, you can still find good prices off/on market and get good spread on deals all over out here.

It looks like you have a healthy spread from purchase to ARV. 

Plenty of publications and journals to read on this, along with books and other print media.

I promise it beats trusting social media gods.Investor list nurturing requires consistent communication.

The reason I picked this one over others is due to the following:1) Its syncs with Google/GMail & Calendar, and it has several "killer addons" for Gmail & Chrome, which is where I have all of my current contact info. 2) It only costs $15 per month, but, I believe that they have recently increased their initial price to $25.3) It's one of the only CRMs that is heavily centered around social media.

In today’s market you need a GREAT spread between your purchase and ARV values and that isn’t the easiest thing to find in a high market. 

If you're willing to put the time, strategies like cold call, direct mail, door knock, PPC, social media might be worthwhile.

A .5% post-tax "spread" between highly volatile projected stock market returns, and the guarantee of a 7% return (by not having a mortgage payment) just makes no sense, to me. 

Right now, the buy-in is so high in NJ, they are locking up deals at prices that aren't sustainable and chasing spreads that are way too big.

You simply assign the contract and that buyer closes with his own source of funds.However, there are situations where either you cannot or don't want to assign:CANNOT:Most every REO, HUD, or Short Sale purchase offer contract will be rejected if And/Or Assigns is named in the Buyer field.DON'T WANT:If you have a particularly high profit spread between the A-B and the B-C, your C Buyer many times will not allow it and demand a smaller assignment fee.
