Is it a such thing as to much studying on the subject? I have been reading and picking up any & everything on the topic. But I have not picked up a property due me really nervous about starting.

Any advise or tips

I worked from a script at first. I used one that was put out by Dan Doran (the marketing man....not affiliated in any way...). No matter which way my seller zigged or zagged in the phone interview, I was able with a question or two to bring them back to the script. That's the beauty of it.

Dealing with people in person....that's an entirely different skill set, but can also be learned if you do not have the natural gift of gab.

I would try some role playing. Get someone to be the seller on the other end of the phone, and practice going through your own script until you feel comfortable.
