Found a Trustee Sale with potential, what now?

Once I find a Trustee Sale with some potential what do I do?

Who are the buyers?

If I want to buy the property, who should I contact? The current owner? The bank? The Trustee company? None of the above?

What is the financial strategy? % of ARV?

What else should I think about?

1.   Contact the owner asap

Remember

Be consistent and take massive action!   

Note: Focus on 70% ARV and below. in other words

if the value of the property is 100k you want to get it at 70k or under( barring any rehab fees)

Good Luck to you!
