These are merely suggestions , since i having started working it per say. re: the hang ups unless you want to call and directly say something like " I see i've missed your call do you have a house to sell" i would simply send another letter and maybe an experienced wholesaler can chime in here but I don't think you should send the same letter.As for the problem of not closing i guess you can chalk it up to learn curve. it's a numbers game (or so i'm told) so keep trucking

If you know your end game and you know how to get there with means (money, time, lawyers, brokers, agents, BPers), go for it.

During the latest and greatest podcast featuring Jay Papasan, Jay brought up an interesting point made by Trump that he learned nothing when the markets were good and everything in down markets (I'm sure I butchered the quote, but I was driving and wasn't able to write it down!).

You should do what you love Learn every part of construction that you can then you can offer your services to other investors and be able to jump into the game with low funds or bad credit.

Thinking about getting back in the game, but the cheapest multi-family in my area is around $600K so I feel kind of hamstrung.

I am looking for a mentor, not looking to share profits(unless I have some skin in the game), otherwise I am willing to do some of the day to day stuff that you don't want to spend your time on. 

I found one that plays the Cash Flow game by Rich Dad Poor Dad once a month, but that's not what I'm looking for. 

From experience, hard money guys like to see at least 15k (your skin in the game) in the bank before they will give the green light on funding your projects.I have not personally done any wholesaling, but from what I have gathered, you would have plenty money left over for a good marketing campaign!

It all comes down to the end game.  

Thanks for the tip - I've used the feature before but apparently when you back space to change the name it breaks the Java Script(or whatever technique is used) behind it and doesn't look up anymore in Firefox on Mac until you delete the @ sign all together and type it over!
