Today we’re going to be calling a for sale by owner house my main Christian was going on. Yeah so what he did is he saw a house that was for sale right next to your stem where I live
Yeah down where he lives and he’s like, I want to call that house and I said, bro, let me call it. So you know, I’m going to be calling a seller right now that listed their house for sale by owner and do you want to kind of give a little bit of a backstory on the property?
Yeah, to be honest. Yeah, I don’t know much about it’s on the main street in the town where I live and yeah, it’s just this old shack. It’s not even I don’t even think anyone’s living there. It’s kind of beat down and kind of fallen apart and I saw the sign so you saw the sign. The sign was clearly there. Nathan give it a call.
What you saying though? Like you’ve always seen it you’re like, Man, I wish I will. Yeah, that before.
Yeah. And I kind of felt bad actually, this is maybe a hard lesson learned. But I thought about calling it probably like 50 times right right right you know before but and then I saw the For Sale By Owner sign go up. I was like, I should have done it.
Yeah, you’re gonna have some competition, which is fine. You know, we’re gonna rise above the competition, right? You rise above that’s it?
We do but not the thing moldings. Right. Now, the big molds we look at them. But when you do the underwriting on them, they just don’t make sense right now. Especially with the cost of capital right now in a refinance side. Now the smaller ones is saying, you know, the 1.3. And I’m roughly about a million into it, and I’m refinancing it right now I should be able to pull almost all of my cash
hat’s awesome. Yes. The reason I’m asking you is because today, one of my family members has a website where he draft generates traffic to I guess leads for multifamily. And sometimes he gets them outside of Tempe. So look at that. I’ll send you that in Atlanta interested? Those are like that. 12 units.
He’s been my specialty number.
Okay, well, there you go. 12 units right there outside of Pueblo and like south of Denver, so that’ll be cool. What do you do you know, a couple more of those markets off the top of your head that you could say we do we do Texas with that a lot. I believe Mississippi is one two in Mississippi is up to remember unclick Alabama was Yeah. So what he did is he saw a house that was for sale right next to your your stone where I live Yeah, down where he lives. And he’s like, I want to call that house. And I said, bro, let me call it. I’ll call. So you know, I’m going to be calling a seller right now that listed their house for sale by owner. And do you want to kind of give a little bit of a backstory on the property? To be honest.
Yeah, I don’t know much about it’s on the main street in the town where I live. And yeah, it’s just this old shack. It’s not even. I didn’t think anyone’s living there. It’s kind of beat down and are kind of falling apart. And I saw the sign so you saw the sign. The sign was clearly there due to have Nathan give it a call where she’s saying though, like you’ve always seen it.
You’re like, Man, I wish ya did before. Yeah. And I kind of felt bad actually, this is maybe a hard lesson learned. But I thought about calling it probably like 50 times Right? Right. Right you know before but and then I saw the For Sale By Owner sign go up. I was like
I should have done it. Yeah, you’re gonna have some competition, which is fine. You know, we’re gonna we’re gonna rise above the competition, right? You rise above that’s it with blameless method. But so next time, if you see a house like that, all you got to do is number one, you can just go leave a note right on the door. Or you can knock it and just be like, hey, you know, I’m an investor. I’m looking to buy it and see if they respond. And if you can’t get a hold of who owns it, like by knocking or leaving a note, you can skip trace it right.
And are you familiar? Skip tracing?
Oh, yeah. Yeah. So skip trace it. So they left the number on for sale by owner. So let’s, let’s get right here. Let’s call and let’s see how it goes. Let’s see. They’re gonna answer. That’s the goal. And we call three times just in case because I have out of state phone number.
So hello. Hi, this is Jerry. I’m not available right now. is calling. Okay, well, one, zero. Well, we know that she hit the fu button. So that means that she’s there and alive. So we’ll give it to her. And yeah, so she’ll answer. Hi, this is Jerry. Okay, one more. And should I call for my number? Oh, no, it’s all good. Usually, it’s like speaking it’s spam. But if you call enough they’re like, Oh, this is pricing unreal. Alright. Oh. So so the next thing you do is you send a quick text and you know, we’ll see if she responds.
So, hey, Jerry. This is Nathan. This is Nathan Payne calling about the house in Santa Quinn. Is that right? Yeah. Santa Quinn. I spoke Santa Clara sa Santa Quinn to you I am. Okay. So calling for sale. Do you have to have a quick minute to chat? I could have left a voicemail too, but I’m hoping that she’s just hitting No no, no that shows just due to quick response. So let’s talk about this. What am I going to do right here? The first thing I want to find out is the options she’s explored, right? Because if I call her and I just assume that she just wants a cash offer, that can be a waste, you know, that’s probably not true.
Maybe she’s looking for renters. Maybe she’s looking for top dollar. So the first thing I want to do is be like, hey, you’ve had this sign up here, the house looks like it needs some work, what options you’ve explored. So I don’t, you know, repeat something that you’ve already like, explored, right? Like, I don’t bring up a cash offer. And you say, forget all cash offers. I’m not even looking for that. So that’s the goal. I’d want to find out what she’s done already. Get on the same page, start with the end in mind and let her know, hey, this is why I’m calling looking to buy the house as an investment or pretty much to find out any way I can make money on it, and see if that’s something we can work on. Like we can work together. And she’s open to that, then we have a good conversation. If she’s not, then she’s looking for something else that I can provide. Yeah, so that would be the goal. Unfortunately, she answer I would have loved her to pick up.
I know,
unless you try it. You want to try? I don’t think I don’t think it’s because I have a 404 number. I think she’s probably in the middle of something. Yeah.
And did you call from an 801 as well?
No, I just call from my cell phone. My cell phones a 404. Draw? Really? You can give it a shot when you might as well doesn’t hurt. If she she hits you with the hurts a little bit.
No, I’m just kidding. Yeah. With the payneless method, it doesn’t hurt at all
It doesn’t. And because for me, you’re looking for the right opportunity. You’re never trying to like force anything. If she’s not the right opportunity, then it’s all good.
Exactly. Don’t get too attached.
Never get attached. That’s when you make bad decisions. You’re at that meeting or the exact match strong said, don’t get that
don’t get attached. Let’s give this a try here. She’s like, do you really want my house? Gosh, call me. Hi, this is Jerry. I’m not available right now. Well, it was worth a shot. I’m sure Jay will give us a call back.
Well, what TO BE CONTINUED Yes, to get to be continued. And I guess what we can do is we can leave everyone with. Look, if this happens, what you can take from it is call. Usually I don’t answer the first time because I think it’s might be a spam call. If you call twice. They’re usually like, Okay, this is a real person three times they don’t answer. They’re busy my opinion. Exactly. leave a voicemail, if you can, which I forgot to do and a text and then just follow up now. It’s very possible that you know, she’s in the middle of something or maybe she put that sign up and she’s getting lit up and she’s like, I can’t take any more phone calls. Exactly. But we’ll find that out to be continued. Keep watching us and we’ll let you know. We’ll let you know what happens. See you later. Thanks for coming in. All day, all day.
