The site not only motivates me to help others, but also restores my faith in humanity.

Motivation and self-starting are extremely important in my current career, as I would imagine they are in real estate.

(I literally just got a call from a motivated seller with 2.4 acres of land in Wareham, MA while writing this intro).

Its a tose up, some would say start marketing to motivated sellers...Or build a buyers list first.You just have to jump in, you've done your research, its not as complicating as you think.

So really, there is no way we can answer this question except to tell you to find a motivated seller, not someone who wants retail.Also, NNEREN actually does have sold comps listed on it without being a realtor.

In other words I find the home, put the bid on it, win the bid (if luck holds out) Find a Seller, Pay for the Property then turn around and sell the Property to a motivated seller at a higher markup, is that about sums it up?

New investors get nervous and you'll need to manage them too, if they weren't motivated on their own they will be harder to manage along the way.Soliciting investors can get you in hot water, there are folks out there, like your competition that might just turn you in.

With a minor 2k fee I place the max offer at 27.9.Considering the seller has this thing on the market at 79k (I believe this is WAY to high to actually sell) he will probably think I'm nuts, but might just be motivated enough to part with it.

It is often Ra Ra motivational, tax liens are great info.

She is pretty motivated to find a solution.
