    What would you like to do? Maybe you can do them all? After finding a deal, evaluate whether or not you should buy and hold, or flip the property. Then, if you want to buy and hold the property, ask yourself what the best way would be to obtain the property, lease-option, owner finance, etc. If not, how do you want to resell it when you are ready?

    HTH,

    videla,
    If only we knew how to get only the people that we want to call calling us. We can target our marketing to certain groups, and get no calls from them. Sometimes They'll give your flyer to a friend, and the friend with a completely different situation will call you.
    Those obnoxious little signs on the side of the road are effective, but you should have more than one marketing strategy in place to get the best results. You can use flyers, post cards, letters, etc.
    Believe me when I tell you, having the phone ringing off the hook with the right people calling is never a problem that you can't handle. You will be able to take the most choice deals for yourself, until you can't handle any more. and best of all. You can then figgure out how to get paid by other investors that are looking for the ones that you can't handle yourself. "Marketing lets good things happen". Go for it.

    Jeff, thanks for taking the time to write back and for the encouragement. If you remember how you felt the few weeks when starting this business, then you know where I am.

    Appreciate the feed back!

    FMV = Full market value
    COmp = comparable sale
    Comparable sales made similar to that structure and property sold in recent history in so many words
