Hello Everyone! I’m still relatively new to Real Estate Investing and currently working towards my first deals. I have went driving for dollars and found a couple homes that look perfect for a potential wholesale deal (grass two feet tall, cracked front window at the front of house, and 25-30 foot tree in front yard that has been dead for what looks to be a few years at least). These homes are on the outside of Sacramento, CA in the town of Galt just past Elk Grove, CA. How should I go about starting the process, I know I can look up the owners name off the city website but would you then try and skip trace the contact information? Or would you first try and send the homeowner a letter, potentially drop a letter off at the front door? I appreciate all the help from the community and fingers crossed we can make a deal!

@Michael Kistner Is this meetup still happening tomorrow evening? Would really enjoying coming out to network. Thanks! 

@Jeff Peterson I would like to hear what your numbers were on this property if you wouldn't mind sharing. Purchase Price, what is the cost of HOA for the Condo each month and what rents you are getting.
