If I wanted to I could get a new number each month but with the blacklist feature i don't have to do that.I use those tracking numbers for my bird dogs too.

I chose to enter this field as a bird dog with the intentions of learning other aspects of REI.

Upon return I told her we urgently needed to close the sale.

.-- PITI expected total is $1,094 monthly (Mortgage + interest $781, property taxes $220, insurance $93)-- Deferred maintenance estimated $8k total (non-urgent items like flooring, paint, kitchen cabinets) of which I have the skills and tools to do much of it.The questions:1.  

@Vincent House I suggest you start with your Local REIA & I started with Bird Dogging first both helped me step out of my comfort zone & also taught me things I didn't know or realize.

Topic is discussed quite a bit, but each investor has their own method for hiring and putting bird dogs to work. 

@Randy Johnston @Eric Black You might get a kick out of this TV news report of a dog friendly apartment complex collecting DNA samples from dogs to discourage lazy owners.

Essentially I'm acting as a bird-dog with MLS access, which makes it MUCH easier to get in touch with listing agents and having an educated discussion about their sellers and properties, ultimately leading to better deals for the buyers/investors.I put in an offer on my second day of being licensed doing exactly this and have done 3 more since.  

Once your a big dog wholesaler then you can start playing that card.But when starting out get out there and talk to the folks.. that's why I think you were successful here...

Based on what you are saying here you are basically bird dogging stuff off the MLS and asking someone to sign an agreement to pay you a fee to, I think, have you tell them who the listing agent is so they can put in their own offer?
