If not what are the best numbers to put me in a winning situation?

Nowadays it often means its a buyers market and a win for investors should the numbers work out....

Like one poster said,  hml isn't cash so it may not help you win more contracts.  

The thing that was amazing about Glenn as he knew a little bit about everything and I mean everything.He knew about business, legal issues, tax issues, marketing, sales, promotion, networking, and most importantly he knew about people (psychology).The first thing he did was tell me that I have two ears and one mouth, and I should listen more than I talk.Second thing he did was have me read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.Then he taught me how to set appointments was home sellers, go out to their home, and write up a letter of intent to purchase or lease.He said to me, "your job is to bring me potential home sellers will consider a creative offer."

Point is, an astute wholesaler creates a win-win-win situation for everyone.

You have to really be committed to this to win it.  

If the amount the contractor has is small then the likely know you will not spend more money to go after them.You go to small claims court and if you win get a judgment.

So its a win/win situation.So if your portfolio is worth $200k, ask for a $30-$40k credit line.  

You can always win her back when you're a real estate mogul!

Also, I'd like to know what you really want and be proactive in creating win-win relationships with you.
