To Call or not to Call? That is the question!
Hey everyone,
Still new to BP, but let me just say the community is amazing. Today I was looking through properties and analyzed a few. I found one that actually made sense in a C+ neighborhood. Here is my dilemma. Should I call the property owners as it is a FSBO and inquire about the property, what they rent it out for (currently rented out) and why they are looking to sell. At this moment I am not able not purchase the house since I am moving myself and would still need to find financing.(I understand I should find my financing avenues before looking at houses) However the case I wanted to learn through actually talking to landlords. The reason I ask is I don't want to call and disturb the owners since I cant make an offer. I would appreciate knowing what people think.
