They can also set you up for automatic email updates so when anything pops up that fits your criteria, it will be automatically sent to you. I would offer to take them to lunch or get them a gift card to compensate for their time. Hi Josh,

I live in California so I cant just get a Realtor's password and have access because the pass code changes daily. How would you approach a Realtor and ask them to do the research for you, and do it in a way that there is some benefit to them? Steph,

That sounds like a great way to do a couple deals until I know for sure my buyers are going to follow through. I didnt see any where on your blog to comment for some reason. Thanks for the idea.

I only use an option if I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to sell it (and if I have no intent to keep it myself if I couldn't find a wholesale buyer). .-= Shae´s last blog ..<a href="http://goodfaithinvesting.com/2009/11/24/subject2-investing-finding-deals-2-key-questions-to-ask-sellers/" rel="nofollow">Subject2 Investing: Finding Deals & 2 Key Questions to Ask Sellers</a> =-.

You mentioned to get a 60-90 day option. How are you doing this. Just signing an option to purchase agreement and letting seller know what your doing I assume? Are you going to assign the contract?

I'm following Stephs course closely and today I just accomplished step 1. I got MLS access. Found a new realtor that is very open to new things. Hes actually a past friend that I ran into and now he just started doing real estate. Awesome Luck for Me! Anyway he sent me a username and password to have MLS access! If theres anyone thinking about getting into wholesaleing do yourself a favor and get stephs ebook. I have about a 1000 in courses and its as good if not better than the others. I hate the courses that are 300 pages long. Stephs is to the point. You can read it and get started. Steph has answered all my questions even before I ever purchased anything from her. I can only say that about 1 other guru. Visit my blog guys and keep your eye open for my progress! http://flippingpa-scottb.blogspot.com/ Hey, guys just wanted to update you all.
