As a new real estate investor, you should start in your own back yard where you have the advantage of first hand knowledge of the market, the customs, expectations, laws, and a network of friends and acquaintances who can help with advice.  

Is anyone able to provide a personal example of a deal they've made using subject to and their exit out the deal?

Later that evening, as we are getting new keys made to our new locks, we literally bump into an end cap displaying two deadbolts for $14.98.

I even made a post about it on BP but it didn't get many responses. 

However, I made the best decision at the time, and did well. 

I't was not easy getting this deal it wasn't that much but it was just a sense of energy in my body that made me smile .

Customizing your message is going to work fine for you.This brings up an idea, perhaps BP can "certify" a Pro Account user who has been on the site for at least 12 months and has a clean record.

She is also a real estate investor and we shared our stories and I made a new contact.  

I made adjustments and Recently that has picked up.

But fortunes are not made by sitting and renovating one home at a time myself.
