Below is small mental list of terms I would like to see, as my potential mentor suggested I write them down) I would appreciate any feedback for missing items, revisions, or anywhere else someone thinks I am missing the ball.

So raising capital is the very first thing i looked at to get started, flips or wholesaling etc...However i managed to speak with a family member who gave me about 20K to get the ball rolling.

A low ball offer and a calculated below market value offer are two different things.If we have an example below:$100K (ARV)$10K (REHAB COSTS - incl. materials & labor)$10K (CLOSING COSTS & OTHER)A realistic offer would be $40K-$50K (depending on your personal rule of thumb - i.e. 60%-70% LTV - incl. all costs - offer @ +/- $5K)Now if their asking price is roughly $70K, this is a reasonable offer.A low ball offer would be anything below $35K,Normally to retrieve an offer below 80% of an REO's asking price is usually not possible.

In a recourse state, is it a tough matter to find a lender who'll play ball with me if i put down a huge amount of money?

When I voice this concern, people say I'm just overthinking it, I need to have balls if I'm gonna be a landlord, etc.One suggestion I heard was just to increase the rent and see if they're willing to pay -- either I end up with a lot of cashflow or an open unit.

@Jenkins Ramon I haven't wrapped one yet, but I interviewed a car wrap business and put the pricing on our marketing site to give people some ball-park figures: http://marketing.webuyhouses.com/vehicle-wraps/ @Jackie Lange LOVE IT!!!!!!!

Matthew,Investors are offing fair offers no low ball offers and that is the reason they are buying.

Don't expect a response if you're sending out a lot of low ball offers to agents.

Exercises that allow you to learn vocabulary and analysis from the basics to the advanced.

Was screwed over by1 manager and then by an investor, who I'd known for a long time and who I had asked for help and who tried to run out my tenants, so that he could make a low-ball offer on my properties.My properties are in a low-income neighborhood in Atlanta and most PM won't work in that area.
