Just seems like this latter list of options would be much more time-consuming than actually calling property owners who have already posted their property for sale.

I used to have a general practice (family, criminal, civil) but I have limited it since 2008 to consumer debtor bankruptcy cases.

Patricia,Everyone in 2008 can think DR Horton homes and the banks for the homes the consumers bought when the bank was financing any three-legged dog that could write and then DR Horton was giving $10K to $20K back to the home buyers.

That equity is consumed through the balance due back to the Mortgagee post foreclosure sale.

I would argue that most consumers nowadays, will visit a website before they make a phone call.

I've spent the past few months consuming as much content on BP related to wholesaling as I could.

Ironically enough, an investor from cali knows "multiple investors" that do.

I haven't done my tally for the job yet but I spent well under $1000 in consumables and that was inside and out, 5 colors.

However and ironically, doing an existing home rehab is something new for me (it's easier to start from the ground up with a new house than doing a rehab, IMHO).

The problem is the house has cast iron pipes.
