@Wayne BrooksMy realtor emailed this to me, she stated that once the short sale goes through the city will require the paperwork to be submitted along with any bids.

You're going to get hit with a bunch of emails from the BP guys that are full of great articles, posts, books, and other resources.

Heck, if you do not mind me installing a keyless entry, I would build a web site for the property, pay for listing and handle all bookings and automatically email you every booking agreement as well as give you access to a web based system so you can see the details of all the costs involved in your property for 10% :)!

Not sure if this is even the correct place to post this.I was wondering if there is a way to take certain info from my mailing list (spreadsheet) to generate lettersFor exampleDear (first name),My name is Kevin and I want to buy your house at:(property address)I think it can be done for emails but I can't even figure that out, any help would be great!

I am gradually getting over the newbie stage and I just received a phone call from one of my direct mail leads.

Look below this Window, and you will see a list of names of people that have posted in this thread.Click on the name of the person that you want notified via an email, that you responded to them.If you are a Colleague with anyone that has NOT posted in the thread, and you want them to see your post, hold down the shift key and type the first 4 letters of their First or Last Name.Then look below this Window and click on that person's name.Raymond

Once that list comes up, pull up the tax records for that house and it will show you who the cash buyer was (along with a mailing address).

Both lists can be a good source of leads; but as always, consistent mailing over a long period of time and quality of letters and post cards are important.

I've got my own business cards, paper ads, bandit signs, car magnets, and direct mail campaign running, so I how would I separate when I am working for myself, or when I am working for the real estate company?

If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone.
