The agents are most likely interviewing you as well to see if you are a credible buyer.

@Steve Babiak Steve raises an excellent point.

I have come to the conclusion that this is a waste of time searching for deals on the open market, and that before you get into the multifamily business, you need to get educated to become credible, start a relationship building business with the players in the area, and a start a marketing business that directly reaches out to the owners of these properties - to break bread with them and share your goals.  

This is an excellent site to learn anything about REI.

That is an excellent point and is something I am very concerned with, which is why I came here looking for real-life experiences exactly like the one you just posted.

(Excellent name :-) )It really depends upon your own financial goals.

WOW excellent info on the website.

Not only does it help you build credibility, but it also helps people become more familiar with you as you engage on the site.Complete profiles without typos combined with a profile pic is a formula for more successful networking here on BP.

That's the nature of a Wholesale deal.As far as acquiring buyers, the more people you send the deal to the more likely you will find a buyer quickly. besides it costs nothing more than a few minutes of your time to do this via email. so the credibility of these buyers is important but that will work itself out.

Excellent advice!
