@Damien Winston the way I usually handle it is I call them back and see when you can come by the property and meet them. Let them tell you about why they want to sell. Take a walk through the house. Take some photos. Let them know you will be able to make an offer within 24 hours. Then when you go home you can more closely analyze how much you should offer. There are scripts you can find by googling around, but honestly the most important part is just talk to them like you would a friend and try to solve their problem.

@Nate Harris would encourage you to drive for dollars in order to keep costs low. Skip trace the owners and call them for lowest cost option.

Only use DealMachine if you have $1000 to invest to get started. Use the $49 / mo basic plan and add 200+ distressed homes and send repeat mail to them for a few months.

D4D is the best list but you can do it without DealMachine. DealMachine just makes it faster!

You can’t upload your own lists in bulk, just one property at a time. You can have up to 3 drivers on the basic plan that add properties for you as well

Hope that helps!

@Asad Malik sounds like it could be worth getting under contract with $50 earnest money... hard to say without more info. Not much at risk for you compared to the reward
