For anyone who has sold a real estate note before:What motivated the sale?

You can have the greatest motivational speaker speak to an audience.

I’m licensed in over 25 states and have spent the last few months studying multifamily and creative finance strategies with the goal of building a portfolio that generates long-term cash flow and stability.I’m extremely motivated to start closing deals now — ideally multifamily or self-storage, though I’m also open to triple net opportunities down the line.

Currently pulling lists from PropStream and door-knocking for pre-foreclosure/high-equity deals, but I'm looking to scale with inbound leads to save time.Came across Real Estate Bees for their pay-per-lead model—motivated seller leads, geo-targeted to the Triad, supposedly high-intent from SEO/PPC ads (not cold lists).

I am a little late to enter the real estate investing world but motivated to start.

I have noticed that investors who focus on rehabs and flips often find it helpful to have a clear system to track motivated sellers and off-market opportunities.

Even though a list may appear highly motivated, like probates, you still need to touch a high number of sellers to generate enough leads to get a property under contract.

I offered the seller $130k with seller-paid closing costs and an additional $26k credit at closing.

(Avery's book is the first one I read and one that motivated me to get into real estate)  I encourage you to check them out. 

I’m motivated, eager, and willing to put in the work to make this happen.Since I’m new to real estate and working with limited funds, I believe wholesaling and bird-dogging are my best options to get my foot in the door.
