Hello BP! I'm Eugene, from the Northwest Burbs of Chicago, and have dabbled in Real Estate for the last few years. Through recent life circumstances and having more time on my hands, I've decided to jump in with both feet and make a go of it. I've wanted to learn this business for a long time and I think I'm at a point in my life where I can devote the proper amount of time to do so.
I'm currently focusing on wholesaling and flipping, as I feel these would be the best strategies that will allow me to learn the business as well as make some cash at the same time.
I'm always looking for like-minded investors to partner up with, learn from, and create win-win situations.
Also, I wanted to give a special thanks to @Wendell De Guzman for taking the time to meet me in person and educating me about this business. I look forward to working with and learning from you in the future!
Cheers!
welcome to BP!

@David Grimm Try searching the site for the phrase "Creative Financing" or read @Brandon Turner's "...No money down..." book. Off the top of my head I would say you can still look into doing lease options/ JV's/ etc; basically any creative financing besides House Hacking :) Good luck!

I just sent an absentee list to 400 people. Got about 15 calls in the first week. Most are people who are renting houses and looking for a good offer to buy their property. Out of of 15 calls .1 was a motivated seller but had negative equity. Make sure you ask a lot of questions when they call. I always ask what they are looking to get out of the property. Don't set an appointment until you have a notion that they are motivated to sell. These people are getting 2-5 cards a month. So most likely your not the only post card they are looking at. Hope this helps. Good luck and let me know how it goes for you.
Your list was specifically for motivated SELLERS, right? Sorry for the stupid question, I was just confused because @Nick Feyereisen was asking about a buyers list.
Either way good luck with your latest direct mail campaign!

I have no idea what kind of questions to ask
I had the same exact question recently. I found a checklist on REtipster.com. Just sign up for a copy of @Seth Williams book and you get the free tipster tool box; the list is in there. Pretty sure that was all free; if not it was very cheap. Otherwise, I agree with @Micah, just search around for something you like.
