First Motivated Seller...HELP!!
I have been marketing for wholesale leads for about a week, and I finally got a hit. Unfortunately, the house is out of state . I'm in Atlanta, and the home is in Harrisburg, PA. Here's what I do know:
1. The home is paid off
2. The owner has not lived in it in years (she's now in GA), and it's in "poor condition"
3. Homes in the area have recently sold for 57-94,000
4. According to tax assessor's site, they are two years behind in prop taxes.
In spite of what I do know, I am unable to properly assess the home from a distance. What do I do?

When you get out of town leads, do a search for investors in the area here on bigger pockets. Offer to split the profits with someone. Go to Zillow determine the value, ask the seller about repairs. Get the property under contract, send them an offer, or have your partner in the city - set up an appointment. Think out the box...
