Jimmy"s life is finally going to change 4-24-2010

Welcome to the DG family first of all and you have already started your life on the right track by posting here with your extended family. As for finding buyers try finding a real estate investors club in your area to attend. You should be able to find investors/buyers there. Try placing ads in the local paper and online. You can also check on this site in the search column on the left under How-To's and Articles. I remember a post of 80 ways to find a buyer(not exactly sure of the number but you get the idea).

Looking forward to seeing a post from you in the near future on your success.

Stay Focused Jimmy. Do not get distructed nor frustrated about all the naysayers and negative people. Suround yourself with likeminded people like joining a REI Club, this site, etc.

Try finding your buyers in Craigslist. Landlords are also buyers because they buy properties every now and then to expand there rental business. Rehabbers are great buyers, property management companies can help you find Landlords and Rehabbers that are active in buying or the company themselves can also be a buyer.

Just be patient. This is a numbers game. The more you call, the more you list, the more confident you become. If you have the book with you, Dean wrote some examples about the scripts to give us an idea. Use them, modify them, create your own to make you feel at ease. Don't ever feel embarassed or frustrated if they say NO to you. Go on to the next. Blessings to all. LA

Hello All in DG world! I'm a newby here in the beautiful state of Colorado.
Jimmy, I feel you. I'm a 1968er as well looking to start anew. Just received
the books in the mail, taking a deep breath and ready to jump in--and let
God's grace handle the rest. I wish you all great success! Please keep me and my family in your prayers as well.

Try looking for For Rent signs, ads find out who owns the property at county tax assessors site if they have lots of properties they are investors look on anywho.com get their phone number and call them. If no listed number write to them. Read the books to find out what to say. Keith Success be with you!
p.s. waiting by the phone doesn't work

Welcome to the DG family. It's good to see your networking on the site. As you know I'm in Saginaw, Mi and we'll have to touch base on things you mentioned you seen come across in this area. I'm still trying to build a Buyer's list though. So, I'm not sure what can be worked out until I get that put together. I have received a couple calls off of my flyers. Still have to get ahold of the one and another was wanting Land contract, but my coach said to stay away from that. Hopefully we can work together soon. Talk to ya soon. Beth
