Flip This Wholesaler

10/26/2007

I put in three offers on mls properties today. 1 was an REO, one an estate, and one an out of state owner. I've lowered my offer formula a bit (like everyone else), for obvious reasons. I'm sticking with the mls as my main source of marketing for now because #1) it's free, #2) I can make a large quantity of offers in a small amount of time, and #3) I don't like talking to sellers. I think working in the hospitality industry for so long, and having had to make mindless small talk with people I didn't know and otherwise wouldn't associate with has kind of made me not want to make mindless small talk with people I don't know and otherwise wouldn't associate with. In short, the bar has ruined me for small talk. I much prefer shooting off an offer and getting either an acceptance, a counter, or an angry call from a pissed-off realtor. I just like it that way. And in case anyone didn't get the memo, I WILL KEEP GOING UNTIL I ACHIEVE WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE THE WAY I WANT TO ACHIEVE IT.
