Out of State Absentee Owners

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well!

Question time!

So what if I place an add on craigslist that I am interested in finding motivated sellers to sell their home and someone contacts me because their house is in the area that I live...but they are not. 

What typically happens? How do I see the property inside? Does the owner come from out of state to show me the property?

You have just found a motivated seller, my friend (:

The best way to answer those questions however is through communications with the owner. Build up a good, trusting relationship when you talk with them so that they understand that although you'll be making money off of the deal you're still looking out for their best interests and finding solutions.
