They don't respond to calls, texts and don't care about communicatingGreatly appreciate the insight.

With that said, why don't wholesalers become brokers and sell 80% of their leads on the MLS and the other 20% of their more motivated leads for cash (the traditional wholesaling way) as a secondary service? 

Life is still good and I’m still more motivated than most people so I can’t complain.

@Santoria Weems, love the motivation and passion!

Where you insert 100 cell phone numbers into a text message.

This has left me with more motivation and excitement than ever.

I decided I'd try and use this situation as motivation to actually get out and buy.

Motivated Seller has a property in pre-foreclosureWe set up a Subject 2 agreement with the sellerWe pay the arrears to make loan current and pay mortgage going forwardHave a Lease Option Tenant with an annual lease that auto-renews (Option expires after 3 years)This rent covers the mortgage plus provides cashflowAfter 3 year term, Tenant purchases the property at a predetermined price minus downpayment (maybe a portion of rent goes to the principal?)

Out of state motivated seller How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

My coaching success is over 90% with my students, I keep their life simple: learn how to present and close a motivated seller before you do anything, before marketing.
