You will not want to overextend yourself and have no cash reserves for vacancies and capex. 100->350 is a big jump and I would question the lenders motives quoting the 350, likely borrowing up to 350k will leave you cash poor, not a place you want to be in.

Now, once you get your licence, re-apply that same amount of  time in reading great books on investing and motivation ( we used to call it self improvement).

Not trying to sound crass but to drive potential leads of motivated sellers to my phone???

Most of my deals are HUD, from motivated sellers, & REOs - we get to see the properties first before we submit offers.

If you can find out who the REO asset owner is, contact them, especially since we are getting close to the end of the year, see how motivated they are to move the property.Try again after 180 days, but consider a slightly higher offer, if the numbers work.

I am very motivated, I learn quick and I am very resourceful.

Today in my office, we made it our goal for one of our acquisition managers to hit three appointments, just three bookings.Simple assignment: We wanted him to go out to meet with three motivated sellers.So how did he do?

I don't cold call or wholesale, BUT, a motivated seller isn't going to care when you call them, If they have a real problem and you can solve it, any time is a good time. 

Hello All,Has anyone had success with using SEO to land motivated seller leads? 

If they are motivated to sell, set up an appointment, understand their situation and craft an offer that works for both of you, which can be owner financing.
