Flip This Wholesaler

12/14/2007

Of the ten offers I made Monday and Tuesday, here are what the results look like:

4 rejections without counters (this includes the “NO” offer that you all had the pleasure of viewing)

2 already had contracts on them but weren’t updated in the mls (drives me nuts)

2 I haven’t heard back from (both are REOs, which usually take a couple days to respond)

2 counters- one came down 15k, the other 7k. The one that came down 15k is another that I have made several offers on over the past 6 months. I need to get it in the 50’s or low 60’s, and her counter was 90k (down from 135k originally). I’ll keep after this one until I get it, or someone else does.

Today is my last day to make offers until after Christmas, as I do not want to get one accepted while I am up North in the freezing tundra of Illinois and have to be scrambling around trying to find a buyer when I am supposed to be enjoying time with my family. So, I plan on making 5 more offers today, and will spent the next week marketing properties for 2 of my wholesaler friends. Would be nice to squeeze 1 more deal in before the end of the year!

Speaking of deals, the one I wholesaled to my friend is closing today- he called yesterday to let me know he’ll have a check for me this afternoon-Sweet!
