Welcome to BP! I lived in Ocala a few years back, I hope it's as beautiful as when I left. Also enjoy your time on BP. There are great people here for every problem you can have, don't be afraid to ask.

@Rumen Mladenov I really appreciate that advice! I have noticed the few spammers of those ads on Craigslist as of recent. I've also noticed some signage. I've had a few ideas to try to seperate myself a bit from that common mold. I also have planned on adjusting my strategy for targeting sellers that I know most aren't keen on. I'll add you to my colleges, thank you again! 

Hello again BP!

I'm a new wholesaler and I'm looking to get a mentor. I'm looking at sending my first direct mail out this next week and I would like to be able to have someone who can walk me through the process of evaluating a property with more construction knowledge than me. im looking especially in the new castle county Delaware area if possible. 

Thank you for your time!

@James Stockton Here's something to consider: how your readers relate to you. 

After getting their attention with your hand addressed envelope, for example, does your letter connect with them on a personal level with the appropriate distance for a stranger? 

This is why I believe condolences are inappropriate once probate gas been opened. 

I bring thus topic up because you BP photo reminds me of a highway patrol officer who wears sunglasses and stood you asking for ...

You get the idea.

That is certainly something to think about! I've also agreed with the condolences not belonging in the mail I send. I personally would trash those postcards/flyers with a message like that. 

As far as the picture, it was a rushed one. I didn't have many good ones. I will work on that though.  

Thank you for the input aswell!

thank you for the feedback Dev!

Welcome! I'm also working in DE. Living right across the line in MD. I'm a wholesaler looking to network as much as I can! 

Hello all! 

I'm a new wholesaler looking for some advice.  So far I've been writing letters to probate leads by hand. I'm starting up my direct mail and I'm looking to know if it's better to research the properties im finding from bulk lists or if I should just send them out to the full list and do research on the properties that I get a call back from. 

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated! 

Hello Delawareans! 

I'm a newer Wholesaler in the Delaware area. I've been looking for experienced rehabbers to work with and possibly shadow on a deal or two so that I can get my knowledge to get my first flip. 

If anyone would like to share their preferences on investment properties, I can contact you when I get deals that fit your criteria.
