@Tim Herndon - Reaching out to you on a separate note  Do you have any experience in Pre-closure negotiating: 

 I have a client that the bank is foreclosing on in Oct. I've never negotiated such a deal. Still need to verify other details, but what I know is this:

- Client has declared bankruptcy

- Client has a Mechanics lien on house for 16k

- Client owes bank 900k, and house (not yet verified thoroughly) is appraised at 550k

- The appraisal is before client leaves house, which will have some further damage to it

Need some Pre-foreclosure negotiating help.   I have a client that the bank if foreclosing on in Oct.   I've never negotiated such a deal so I'm seeking any advise.  Still need to verify other details, but what I know is this:

- Client has declared bankruptcy

- Client has a Mechanics lien on house for 16k

- Client owes bank 900k, and house (not yet verified thoroughly) is appraised at 550k

- The appraisal is before client leaves house, which will have some further damage to it

Thank you @Shanna Bechtel and @Justin Silverio - good input, though I'm not crazy about tracking in excel. 

Oh, one more ask - @Tim Herndon.   I'm just learning about the "squeeze" page and brochure page.   Can you explain the differences a bit more.  Sorry to hit you up with so many questions. 

By the way, @Tim Herndon - great advise you shared. 

@Tim Herndon - very helpful info you shared, thanks!!!!  I'm new to the game, so building by book of business.   Paid mentors, investigated: (Justin Williams, FortuneBuilders, Phil Pustejovsky, Ken Clothier, and the list continues).  I'm now reaching prop analysis tools: Houseflippingspreadsheet, CRM: Realeflow --- it's becomes very consuming and confusing.  I find BiggerPockets to be the best of resources - 

Thank you Zachary.  I'm currently looking into that system.  I guess my follow up question would be - if we're all using Realeflow, then what distinguishes us from one another?  Or are we hoping no one in our area is using realeflow.  

Can anyone recommend good Direct Mailing companies.   And also any recommendations for creating Websites for the business.

I retract my previous comment.  On J Scott's recommendation, I just checked out HouseFlippingSpreadsheet.com - Awesome.  Costs, but minimum, and from what I can tell from a quick perusal - so much detail and well organized.   

I found a great form put out by the guys on City Lights Homes.  They provide if Free, and it's the best I've seen.
