Thanks Account Closedif only you knew how many times I submitted low ball offers and would get abused by realtors and sellers only for them to come back 2 months later saying "is your initial offer still on the table?"

The more I'm reading about real estate investing, the more I'm thinking about reducing my 401k contributions to meet my employer match (reducing completely seems to be leaving money on the table) and diverting those funds to buy rental properties.

I've mentioned branding your company, leaving small details on jobs unique to your work, these are signs as well to those who can recognize them, like small brass inserts in building corners or the hearth of a fireplace.

Taking part of the money left on the table by the last folks to use as your tip.

Howdy,I've got kind of a unique situation and really don't know how to go about it.

The REO'S I buy technically take financed offers but whenever there is a cash offer on the table (sometimes less them the financed offer) they usually go with the cash offer.

Also it will allow you to negotiate with your friend..Don't leave any $$ on the table...Good luck!

It's a very unique market, quite different than any other market I've ever invested or brokered in.

Bring something to the table and make it worth someone else's time to show you how they operate.

This allows them to get their numbers out on to the table - their high number and their low number.
