@Brad G. It is not clear if you are just made two offers or you have two offers accepted (meaning you are under contract)?

Hi @Laura Levine

I would start with a rehab analysis sheet like this one:

If you need more guidance I would track down a local flipper in your area and see how they do it.

Good luck!

Sight un-seen offers in my area pretty common. Phx has a lot of new builds and cookie cutters homes, if a model match sold quickly then I have pretty good idea what my home will sell for. I know back east, the neighborhoods are not setup this way, but once you buy a certain number of home and need to ramp up volume, visiting every property is a big time waster. If I have my doubts, I will send my PM out there or view it myself but in most cases most are bought sight unseen or off the MLS pics.

@Jessica G. Welcome to BP. There are number of savvy buy and hold people on here. I look forward to reading your posts. Good luck!

Hi @Erick Yang Welcome to BP. It is a great site and you can learn a lot from it. I look forward to reading some of your posts.

@Shayne Hastings - Can you clarify what you need? I'm not sure what a 1-liner report means.

@Marc Dufour - You will likely have better results contacting a title company and asking for their pre-foreclosure list. I get a daily one from Fidelity National Title for my local market. They typically free with the understanding that you use them for closings. Good luck!

@Anthony Gayden - No you do not need to present. It depends on the title company but most can email you docs and then you can get them notarized at local bank or they can setup a mobile notary for you. Good luck!

I don't know of any investor, that is doing any sort of volume, that can meet the 70% rule. If you are doing only a few flips/year than I can see waiting for the 70% rule. The 80-85% discount factors are more common in my market.

If you just want postcards printed, I've have good luck with Phoenix Media: http://www.phoenixmedia.com/

Good luck!
