John, Keep in mind that an expired listing doesn`t give you a homeowner name, it only gives you an address. Unless you, or someone you employ, wants to try and cross reference the name with the address, they aren`t that incredibly helpful either. It also doesn`t mean that they haven`t listed...

As far as lists go. In Ron`s CD`s he often makes comments that sending to Zip codes is the least effective list you can use. I have also been listening to some of the archived Tuesday Q&A call in shows from GOFFN. At one point, replying to a caller who was getting poor yellow letter results, he...

QUOTE (MikeMilovick @ Oct 29 2009, 05:26 PM) This arrangement is not permitted in Ontario. Its either flat rate or percentage. Not tiered. Mike Just as way of clarification/understanding on your statement, in our course I thought Ron mentioned that any percentages or arrangements are always...

QUOTE (MKBridge @ Oct 29 2009, 10:06 PM) One of my lists does have many initials and I was wondering how to send letters to these people. Didn`t want to leave them out of the picture but I do want to start with letters to people with a first name listed. I agree with your thoughts on how to deal...

I`m starting this thread through complete ignorance of the court system.....specifically in Ontario for me, but I`m sure all ideas will be valuable. I`ve been making some inquiries with my friend who is a private investigator and he mentioned that here in Ontario they have a really outdated...

QUOTE (ZanderRobertson @ Oct 28 2009, 12:07 AM) yes, privacy laws in canada don`t allow us to filter for certain kinds of lists. If anyone knows a way around this, please share! Zander I mentioned this in another thread and nobody seemed to comment on it. But I think we are stuck with postal...

QUOTE (ctang @ Oct 28 2009, 11:54 AM) Hi John, I agree with you there. The house I`m looking at though is considered a Pretty House and not an Ugly so finding out the loan balance would make sense here would it not? since I may buy it with Seller Financing or Options. (minus the fact that the...

QUOTE (marcp @ Oct 28 2009, 02:12 PM) And that is why PatLive should be taking the calls. Ron Legrand said this specifically, word for word in the bootcamp. It`s on the CD`s!! Listen again.. "You`ll be getting calls from very angry people, but they`ll be chewing up PatLive, not you! " David...

QUOTE (neill @ Oct 25 2009, 10:39 PM) Quite frankly though, the amount of the default should not be the deciding factor in presenting your offer, IMO Yep.....I just read about this a day ago and I think what Ron says is you should never let the loan balance on a bank owned property affect your...

Hi Tony; I too would appreciate a copy of your scripts..... [email protected] Your public guidance and helpfull reponses to all the newbies out there is truly inspiring. Thanks; John Soucie

QUOTE (WJW @ Oct 22 2009, 03:54 PM) Yes, I know its better to outsource this and I will be with www.YellowLettersComplete.com, but i thought for those on a tight budget the link below explains a DIY way to reduce costs by more then half. Here`s the link I found online while searching for a...

QUOTE (neill @ Oct 21 2009, 11:53 PM) We have talked with Universal Lists - they have dedicated folks that look after LeGrand people. Rate quoted is .14 for 5400 names so far - final purchase tomorrow - will see how close they get to the rates posted here. It`s sounding like with the Privacy...

QUOTE (C2Ventures @ Oct 21 2009, 10:16 PM) How about a post office box number...or leave blank. Actually I think he mentioned not to use a PO Box. To me it`s a tip off that it may be commercial mail. You simply put your address on it, no name.

QUOTE (BrianPersaud @ Sep 22 2009, 01:04 AM) I help people become liquid millionaires by managing their most valuable financial assets. That`s an interesting one. Since I basically think I know what you are taliing about.....JV`s I assume, it actually doesn`t sound very truthfull to me and...

Great topic!! I`ve been wondering about this and really wonder if every landlord actually loses a full months rent just for the sake of cleaning an apartment/house for 1 day. Seems like a really high penalty. As was pointed out, to get it done, it almost surely means pulling an all-nighter. I...

When I saw this thread it remimded me about his articles I had read before joining REIN. His stuff really did seem like Late Night Infomercial - too good to be true stuff....but I sort of hoped it really was true. I forgot all about him until this thread. So I went to his website and within 10...

QUOTE (Gale @ May 28 2009, 10:49 PM) There are motion activated sprinklers that people use to scare deer away that would probably work in this situation. How about fighting fire with fire, and borrowing a dog or having a buddy bring his dog over to share his daily constitution? Or maybe an...

QUOTE (invst4profit @ May 27 2009, 02:14 PM) The thinking is that if you can not find a property that works you are either not looking hard enough or you are looking in the wrong areas. Also when you see many of these $240K homes for rent for wayyyy less than the 10% rule, you might get the...

The credit bureau address details for my own personal report came out so innacurate that they were laughable and nothing more. For example, in the last 20 years, although I`ve only lived in 2 apartment buildings and then finally my personal residence, the apartments are listed with the correct...
