One way is to just target "good" neighborhoods only when sending out yellow letters.

So it turns out these ARV's, are usually VERY incorrect when mentioned by the sellers....so since I don't have a car to do it myself, I would need to have an Agent do CMA's for me, so how would I go about finding an Agent willing to do this for free? Aren't I wasting their time? Keep in mind I'm only a Wholesaler atm......

Ah the joys of being a wholesaler in a down market... there are other ways! Just thought I would mention that.

As to the WCRT Subgroup, Subgroups are very very small informal hang outs, discussion, etc. So the vary in size. If you want to make a difference, attend the MAIN MEETING in Elmhurst on the first Thursday of the month. We are all about networking and education. Our presenters are strictly forbidden from hard selling their product. No "hurry to the back of the room" stuff at the WCRT!

We welcome all to join in. First meeting is NO CHARGE even.

But if you also want to attend the Sub group, by all means. Sometimes we have 5 sometimes 25. But in the end, it only takes one person, and it only takes you asking questions and being involved!

ASH - keep up the hard work. But maybe use some SMART Work along the path.

Thanks for the encouragement...although I am also applying smart work as well...haha But I personally won't be able to make it out the meeting tonight(someone informed me via PM) as I can't make it out there to Elmhust(at least not that I know of) without a car, so it's not looking good. Good news is it looks as if I'll be coming through with my first deal....have to wait and see how things work out tomorrow...in the meantime...much more hard....and smart work ahead!

Another meeting tomorrow night in Elmhurst ASH! Some pre-planning might be able to get you a ride, carpool, or maybe try ZIPCAR?

Hello my name is Chris and I live in Pekin, IL. I'm just getting into Real Estate and am looking to become a bird dog. I figure this would be a good way to get into it without alot of money or risk. Feel free to contact me. Thank you very much.

Hello, everyone. I'm seeking a Realtor and any investors for the western Chicago region - 60651 zip code.

[dukefan2014]

I don't know any realtors in that area but I do know a lot of buyers in the general Chicago area!

I would recommend going to the website of the biggest realtor company in that area. Call them up and ask them who was the top selling agent for the last month (they always have the plaques right there on the wall). Then, ask for him or her and just start by telling them what you're looking for. If they don't want to help you out, ask for the 2nd top selling agent and talk with them.

Hi, dukefan2014. Thanks for the input! I've actually found an agent who's been a great help. Now, I gotta get to work with finding an end buyer for a 2 flat in the Humboldt Park region since I've been able to snag a solid deal, based on recently sold data in that area. I'll team up with the agent who's been assisting me as well as other agents to find a buyer. Hey, if you'd like to work this deal with me, let me know!
