Listen to the podcasts while you drive back and forth from work.

I tell them I'm low on funds and so they advise I drive for dollars.

I am a beginning Investor that is currently "driving for dollars" learning all that I can about wholesaling properties which will allow me to pursue other passive income opportunities in the near future.

You can either drive to the owners house and talk to them in person or do a direct mail campaign to get them to call you.  

I keep looking and adding to my list of other potentials that all are within the criteria (ie cash flow, good neighborhood, age of home, etc. you get it, we all have criteria) but the dynamics of the market are wreaking havoc.I cross it off (still keeping an eye out because the contract may very well just fall through) and look for other properties, otherwise I wouldn’t have anything to assess.It doesn’t drive me too crazy but I can see it being a nightmare for a realtor (are investor-realtors more understanding and amenable to this dynamic – yes I think so) The quick assessment now leads me to see if it will be a good investment.

One thing to keep in mind is that some insurance companies do drive by inspections after you buy a property and they may tell you that you have to fix the roof or they will drop coverage.

I'm looking to completely replace kitchen cabinets, counters, add crown moldings, and appliances. 

An LLC is a pass-thru entity where the profits pass thru to my personal tax return.  

Needless to say, it isn't worth the gas to drive out to your property for that amount.My best advice is simple.

I drive a lot of miles, so I also had to factor in a car that can handle the miles.
