Thanks,,,, Nathan, confused about contacting investors directly by driving for dollars, are you saying to work with them to find them distressed properties, please clarify I am confused with what you are trying to tell me Broadly, and everyone has their own definition, driving for dollars is when you physically search for homes that are in your target range, find the owners of them, and try to negotiate off market deals.

@Crystal Smith thanks for the honest and blunt feedback - I really appreciate it. thanks for the closing costs estimator tool.Similar to my response to Tim, I struggle to find the value in this (and any investment opportunities thus far to be honest..) property with my lacking ability to target accurate rental rates & ARV.

Hi everyone,I work for a new insurance carrier that primarily targets landlords and real estate investors.We often get asked about the difference between DP3 and what we sell which is a commercial line policy.

I've been targeting the South Hills area.

Then you’ll want to Identify and understand specific markets you want to target and then work on building a list of potential motivated sellers and work on various marketing tactics like direct Mail, cold calling, etc.

You should go onto LoopNet for your target market, find all the brokers, cold call all of them, tell them what kind of deals you're looking for, and then continuously follow up with them over and over again!

We have only targeted about 150 people. 

We target the loans and that have the largest delinquencies where the most likely outcome is foreclosure.

This experience will help you as you grow and scale your portfolio.Best advice I can give you is to speak with an investor-friendly lender and narrow your search to target areas that fit your criteria and desired price-range.Best of luck to you moving forward!
