Let us know if we can help you find motivated sellers. If you’re only talking to motivated sellers, you’re going to be writing a lot of deals. You do need to be able to “sift alot of calls” to find out who’s motivated and who is not. But you’ll be making a lot of money if you are finding these motivated sellers.

Drop us a line.
