Time wasted, distractions allowed

RE Report for 01-12-2016

It's been 37 days since my last report.  I'm still alive.  In my personal life, I have allowed myself many distractions.  Hannukah, Christmas, New Year...  I did attend a local REIA meeting and made an attempt to mingle. Socializing like that is not my strong suit but, I knew a couple of people there.  All folks that I originally met on BP, then in person.  

I purchase my first list and sent out my first set of yellow letters and got a .  The week before Christmas I sent out 12.  Yes, you read that right.  Twelve letters.  Go big or big go home, right?  Still, I must have done something right as I got a %17 response rate!  Two of the twelve recipients called me back.

One was an investor who was not at all motivated to sell.  However, he is looking for other deals in the area and told me he'd buy anything I found in the area under $150K.  So I have another buyer for my buyers list.

The other response was a home owner who was not motivated either.  In fact, she had her agent call me.  The house is WAY too expensive.  I don't think there's any way for me to make money here.

I'm working a lead that I got through word of mouth.  More on that later.

Over and out,

Ben
