Day 5

For the last five days I have been setting a foundation for my real estate business. I made a comprehensive outline and plan for accomplishing my goals, both long term and short, I did market research and decided on a primary focus area, I began looking for properties that fit my criteria, and I began working on a buyers list, all while educating myself on the real estate techniques that I will employ to move forward. Day five is really no different. I started up a craigslist identity earlier to try and market a property that I had my eye on, so far I have had no luck getting responses, so I am switching gears. My new course of action will market directly to rehabbers/contractors advertising properties 50-65% under market value. I believe that doing this will generate enough response to start up a buyers list. I am also scouring the Sunday newspaper classifieds from the past 3 months for we buy houses ads. This weekend I will contact all the buyers on my list, and by next week I will be able to start looking for properties that fit those criteria.
