Potential newbie question here.A BP user was advertising REO properties in Florida.

The presentation you posted in the BP Forum to advertise for funding was eye catching and very professional.

In my state, if a tenant moves out before their lease is up, I can continue to charge them rent until I find a new tenant, I can charge them costs of acquiring a new tenant (such as advertising fees).

We haven't done any deals quite yet, but we are making calls, advertising, and doing whatever necessary to get our first deal done.

Just create an attractive advertisement and headline and make sure to re post every day?

However, I have found that dealing with "some" wholesalers or those who claim to be wholesalers, is extremely frustrating.Here's a situation I'm dealing with now.I saw a property advertised on Craigslist.  

I'm advertising a suite for rent on Kijiji and the ad is going to page 30 within 24 hours - i.e.  600 local postings a day!  

Other than the advertisement I'm not sure I'm interested in anything else they provide.Craigslist is an obvious alternative but I'm curious what other listing agencies or strategies folks have or are using successfully.

Here is item 3 mentioned above1.Delivery of Property Information Items: Within 7 days after the effective date, Seller will deliver to the Buyer:a)copies of all current tenant applications and leases pertaining to the Property certified to be true and correct, including any modifications, supplements, or amendments to the leases (applications, leases, modifications, supplements and/or amendments to be made available to Buyer during regular business hours at the Property);b)current rent roll (showing lease rent, delinquencies, lease expiration and security deposits paid), certified by Seller to be true and correct;c)most recent 3 months bank deposits;d)a copy of Seller's income and expense statement for the Property for the last 36 months immediately preceding the effective date;e)copies of the Evidence of Insurance for all policies since the last renewal, including invoices, current policy, and copies of the last three years loss run from the insurance carriers for fire, hazard, liability and any other insurance policy that relates to the property;f)copies of all previous surveys, environmental assessments, geotechnical reports, studies, architectural, engineering feasibility studies, “as builts”, plats, or analyses made on or relating to the Property, including maps, plans and drawings;g)real and personal property tax statements and any appraisal notices for the Property for the previous 2 calendar years;h)copies of current capacity letters, and current utility bills from the property's water, sewer, gas electric, trash, phone and cable service providers for the past two years, or permission to access these accounts;i)copy of existing Property Management Agreement; a)payroll detail – 2012W-2s, YTD monthly, and most recent Y-T-D paystubs;b)a current inventory of all personal property to be conveyed under this contract and copies of any leases for such personal property;c)copies of all notes and deeds of trust against the Property that Buyer will assume or that Seller will not pay in full on or before closing;d)copies of all current service, and maintenance, agreements relating to the ownership and operation of the Property; including but not limited to: Laundry Lease, Cable/Satellite, Electric, Phones, Leasing, Commission, Advertising or other;e)copies of all current warranties and guaranties relating to all or part of the Property;f)current and past capital expenditures for the past three years;g)copies of all work orders for repairs incurred by Seller for the Property in the 24 months immediately preceding the Adjusted Effective Date; (work orders to be made available to Buyer during regular business hours at the Property)

I know a lot of people on BP say that winter is a terrible time to find tenants but I have found if you advertise well and have a good unit that really has not been a problem.
