I’ve spent the past six months listening to the BP podcasts, reading all of the guides and recommended books (including J Scott’s), and learning as much as I could before I arrived in town.

I spent a few days coming up with a application that will pull all the e-mails address from the last few days of "real estate for sale - owner " sectionIt would then send all of those folks a ( call me I want to see the house and put in an offer e-mail )I ran the program once, most of the folks that called want top dollar or market value.

So we have spent 1500.00 on that so far.

Usually, the cost savings they see from reduced time spent on rent collection, reconciliation, and accounting well outweighs the cost of PayNearMe.

In other words, you won't get $200 / month more on a property because you spent a lot of money if that $200 makes it much more expensive than comps.  

If you don't see that type of house as money in the bank this isn't for you.We are looking for:>> Character, honesty and integrity>> Someone fun to work with>> Self-starter that likes to work hard for the reward>> Willingness to learn and get out of the box to be successful>> Motivated by money and willing to work for it>> Reliable transportation, working cell phone, laptop computer and camera >> Feel safe driving into lower priced neighborhoods>> Flexible schedule to get the job done when needed>> Organized, able to manage a calendar and be on time to appointments >> Good people skills, friendly>> There's probably more, but we can flush that out in an interview If you're interested in learning more, please send:1.

Our time is best spent making deals not venturing to areas that are not our expertise.

I have a good friend that spent some time flipping houses.
