If you're licensed, you have one method for collecting a fee for connecting a buyer and a seller.

. - The servicer does not have to agree to additional valuation methods. - Sellers better pray they get an experienced BPO agent because if they over value your property and it does not sell within 120 days because it is overpriced, you just gave your property to the bank (see DIL #2 and #4 above) Don't fret though as there is ONE good thing about HAFA.

My marketing method is primarily a 2 letter direct mail drip campaign to landlords.

I read some of the threads about structuring the notes so they are easier to sell by using a 1st and 2nd and the pro's and cons but none of them dealt with the fact that you need to prove the payments were made.If you all use a very simple method to show payment history, and don't report the their credit, (copies of checks) - thats all well and good.

I've been told that not all markets are this way.Kenneth, you are welcome to call me and I'll be glad to privately help you with some particular strategies for your particular market.Ryan, you mentioned how driving your farm area is the best method to learning values as well as finding vacant/beat up houses that could possibly be deals.

I am trying to save time in researching probate properties so I am wondering if this method of targeting sellers will work.

All in all, you should try a combination of different methods and see what works and adjust accordingly.

This method will ensure that you get a bigger % of your leads turned into deals.On the other hand, the voicemail system can be good if you have a huge number of leads coming in.

In your experiences how has the following methods worked for you?

@Eric michaels -I'm getting into this post about 72 hours late, however my quick take is that your normal research methods did not pick up the fact(s) that a 1st had become subordinated to a junior position and you bid it as a 1st.
