Start a normal conversation...

I know that I can ask and they would tell me, but I'm not sure I would remember the property unless I told the seller I would call back after the initial conversation. 

I can see it in their twitching left eye after a whiff.SO, now that would be the mentor route.No consider my route.Get a website, make it credible, do a search for "Forced Traffic & Conversion strategy".

Johns county brought the highest STR dollars last year BTW, how big is your renovation/conversion project? 

Look at this deal we closed with direct mail being a marketing source.My initial conversation with the seller was 6 months earlier.

I actually hope you disagree with me and shed some light on this, but in addition to not having the time/need/desire to get my license, I think it would have hindered many of my conversations with sellers to date.

@Arn CenedellaThe problem will all these future projections is that they require assumptions to be made about the future.If you assume RE will go up 10% a year and stocks 8%, RE will be the answer.If you assume the converse, funds will be the answer.I have never placed much faith in future projections.Depending on what assumptions, you make you can create any answer you want.

Do you know your conversion funnel?

@Roy N.I am aware of thatThis conversation was extended further back@Nicholas WhitesideAsked if you can purchase a property under under your personal name then transfer to LLCThen asks if that is applicable in CanadaYou definitely can get financing for your corp but your corp will likely have to be on the offer and not your personally name.

That's a conversation to have once you have an offer is infront of you.
