MLS offers

So I finally have my semi-automated system in place that will allow me to make 40+ offers per week.  Basically what I have is an Option-Contract and a Cover Sheet that are mailed out to the owners of properties that have been listed and since withdrawn from the MLS.  My Realtor was able to export an Excel file from the MLS that contains the expired property information that I desire.  This spreadsheet was then appended with county assessor information (last date sold, owner name, assessed value, and etcetera).  The Option-Contract and Cover Sheet have mail-merged values that include the property address, offer price, mailing address.  This mail-merge along with the custom Excel doc, makes me semi-automatic.  After all of the printing is said and done, I hand-address the envelopes.  I just sent out my first batch today.  Next week, it’s on and popping again.

However, next week I’m going to use my Tax Delinquent list and not the MLS expired list.  I have a Tax Delinquent list left over from the tax sale last October.  With the MLS expireds, there is way too much additional manual-work needed…it’s best to check if the property has since been relisted, if the property has been sold, and etcetera.  This extra work takes the automation right out of the equation.  This is still a task to pursue, but best in addition to something that’s close to automatic and always running in the background while I perform the tedious composition of some offers.  With some of the offers that I’m making, many will go straight to a waste-basket, I’m sure.  But I need to boost the amount of “hell naws” that I receive so I can accept more “yes please” replies.  We all know this is a numbers game.

And to the email naysayer #242 who wrote:

…I seen your 40 deal a week strategy. Thats almost impossible dude…

This is my formal response:

Please Believe That.
