Getting your first seller on the phone is exciting, but dont let that excitement blind you from determining if this is a deal or not.

Many, many phone calls, meetings and inquiries later I went through the process without a hitch with a loan officer at a Wells Fargo branch that is 6 hours from where I live.

Bank of America, Chase, etc. all have it.The candidates can snap it from their phones and text it to me.The pay stubs are sent to me via email, etc.In a lot of cases, I wouldn't need to even pull a credit report because I tell them that they MUST log on to the website where they got it originally and prove to me what was sent to me was not altered.Since I have been doing this for about several years, not one candidate has altered their credit report.

I'm willing to connect by phone or in person, tag along on a walk through or make seller cold calls.

My wife still just uses the Redfin app on her phone and looks at it more frequently than I do so a lot of times she shares listings with me through Redfin before I see them on the MLS lol.   

@Chris Watson @Avery Carl @Ken Latchers @Lucas Carl and all others ( sorry, I’m replying from my phone and can’t go back to look all the names)- thank you SO much.

Not sure how to PM via the phone app?

@Mark Brogan,Yes - Few words in large letters that can be read across a highway, large phone number.Try for a "vanity" number, something easily remembered.

I usually have to talk to people on the phone and see net worth and liquidity to give my opinion of what they might look into.

Look at your phone contacts and ask friends for referrals of people they have actually worked with.
