My First Offer

Hey all,

This is my first post and I wanted to share that I submitted my first offer yesterday. While the seller did not accept it felt great to get up the courage to throw and offer out. I'm not going to let that get me down and will continue to feed the pipeline and utilize my strengths and improve on my weaknesses. I've been sending out direct mail to absentee owners, but no deals yet. I look forward to growing with you all that are serious and looking to take your life to new heights.

I used to be nervous to talk to sellers and disappointed when they didn't accept my offer. Now none of it bothers me. I have no problem telling them my price even if it's way below what they want. 

Practice makes perfect. Return all calls and submit offers on every house. When you get a truly motivated seller you will look and sound like a pro.
