What you are describing sounds like a pretty solid relationship that will take some time to foster and nurture, so to your point don't rely on those big companies go hit the pavement and shake some hands.

Ask the right questions and develop good relationships.I've found that over time when you are constantly moving and shaking the trees, deals will start to fall out.  

The feedback is greatly appreciated.I should have been more concise -, the goal is to shake things up and elevate the tools available to real estate investors like yourself.

The good old fashioned hand shake or even the quick nice to meet you hug.  

Let me know if you’d like help modeling this strategy with numbers or seeing how it would shake out in one of your target markets.

It’s also a great way to learn how local pricing trends work and what kinds of deals buyers are chasing.If you're just starting out, don’t expect to buy anything—but do expect to shake hands, collect business cards, and expand your buyer list.8.

I haven't converted any leads as of yet but I'm only a week into the campaign so its still early in the game. but I cant shake this nagging feeling that i need to be doing something else right now instead of just waiting for leads to come in. i feel like the SEO strategy is a "set it and forget it" type of strategy which is exactly what I'm looking for but i still feel like i need to be doing something else WHILE checking the status of my campaign.I've continued to pull list with the intent on doing some cold calling & reverse driving for dollars but I've been kind of limited in getting out at a decent time due to my actual day job and family time.I don't really have the funds to invest in a VA right nowI'm till taking time to learn the industry when i canWhat more could/should i be doing while the campaign is running?

its still very submarket specific but in general the investment space is moving and shaking it seems. 

Let’s use $1.1M as a working number.Most lenders will cap a first-time flipper at 70–75% of ARV, which puts your max loan amount around $825K.Here’s how the structure would likely shake out:Purchase: $699KRehab: $150K80–90% of purchase = $559,200–$629,100Plus 100% of rehab = $150KTotal loan amount: $709,200–$779,100You’d need:~$69,900 down (if you’re approved for 90% of purchase)~$37,500 in reserves (25% of the rehab budget)Plus closing costsThis is all doable — but it’s also a big loan, and that surprises people sometimes.
