@Latimer Luis Everything is always difficult at first. Push through it , figure it out and eventually you will be super confident and you will look at this moment as a minor bump on your road to success.

You seem like a respectful well mannered lady couldn't imagine what he did to upset you.

@Amanda Glenn EMD is a deposit needed from the buyer required to make a valid contract.

@Lorenzo McKinney

Go to meetups, put out some signs saying you have investment properties. To explain what you do just say “ I come across great off market deals that are profitable and a lot of the times I am looking to wholesale deals/ assign them. So if you are interested in discounted deals that you can rehab and make good money on I will keep you in my contacts and give you a call when I find a good deal for you to buy”

@Nick Quarandillo dropout, prove everyone wrong & become a millionaire.

@Stephanie Pieri There are a couple of websites out there such as listsource that you can use to generate lists. I have not heard much great success from people using them. My guess is every one and there mama is mailing to the same lists that they sell to everyone. Sooo the real gold is going to your local courthouse and figuring out how to get those list of tax delinquent, probate, code enforcement etc. The thing is every city is different so go up there and ask all the questions and im sure someone will help point you in the right direction. 

@Carlos Toussaint Whats up! The rental market here in Virginia is great. Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, Va Beach, Newport news, the whole hampton roads area is a hot market a lot of military. when ever you come up this way give me a shout lets meet up. I would also say single family is more popular. Look forward to talking with you !

@Moaaz Ahmad welcome ! amazing what you have accomplished i have no doubt you will be successful in your real estate ventures . My advice since you are passionate for the big deals such as multifamily apartment complexes would be continue to save and learn everything you need to know about multifamily. Find a mentor who is an expert in multifamily that you can rely on for guidance. Then seek the right deal you can pounce on. Also i would consider getting involved with a syndication or partner up with someone experienced for your first deal so you can really use it to learn a lot.

@Matt Mcnulty understood , when first starting out you have to do a lot of hustling. Driving through neighborhoods, knocking doors, leaving notes on doors, putting out signs, calling fsbos, posting on social media, posting on craigslist. You will get on the phone get that experience gain confidence then once you start putting some deals together you can really dump the profits back into marketing on a large scale.

@Matt Mcnulty my friend it is simply a numbers game. No magic pill, no one thing in particular, its about taking action and finding  what you like to do best. If you are just starting out i would recommend driving around building your own list and also door knocking. A lot of people are to lazy to do that and it has proven to be very efficient for me.
