In my short time learning about notes I have learned that most note buyers who say they can purchase notes at closing actually can NOT. With that being said, is it common practice for note buyers to commit to buying a particular note while waiting for it to mature?

Of course with the note being structured and recorded correctly with favorable terms.Not speaking of a monetary commitment but more of a written one.

Ibrahim,
If that OPRA Request works that is some great info.
Ive also heard of investors approaching homeowners after the court sessions and expressing interest in buying their home.

J Scott,
Really Really nice !!!

Jimmy,
I agree that marketing is ONE of the key elements of having a successful RE business. I myself have struggled with this and a few things that I have learned to make it a little easier.

First, make sure your marketing material is top-notch. You wont have someone call and say they decided to do business with you because your material looks good but if you send out sub-standard products they will assume you are cheap and not serious about your business.

Second, Be persistent in your marketing efforts. Let them continue to see your material on a regular basis.

Finally, Be able to deliver. If you are persistent you will get your chance, and when you do its important that you are able to close the deal. When these people know you can perform they will be happy to send you clients.
Just a few things Ive learned.

Peter,
Im trying to contact you for some coaching. My info is in my signature.

Hi Stephon,
I live in the Atlanta area but have never heard of these guys so cant say if they are good or bad. One thing I will tell you is that YOU can scout properties for yourself and cut out the expensive middleman.

Two things to do. First select an area of town that you are interested in and drive the area so you can familiarize yourself with the neighborhoods. This IS time consuming but its a good way to start. Second do some serious research on biggerpockets on the many different ways in which to find deals.

I started off birddogging for other investors and thats how I got into the business and would be glad to meet and share the things that I have learned.

Dustin Great Job,
Success stories are needed in order to help others believe!!!!
Keep up the good work!!!

As the saying goes " A hard head makes a soft behind" Through my many sleepless nights thinking about break-ins and riding by houses at 1am to check on them I have surely changed my feelings about certain neighborhoods and would rather be able to sleep with the 20%.

Keep up the good work!!!!!

Will,
Thanks. We agree on two things: the first being, you must have a target area which you know well and second, there are many techniques to actually finding deals and thats were experienced investors like yourself come in, to explain these techniques in detail. Im sure the meeting on the 11th will be informative.
