John,
This is the area that I am sure ALL of us here will benefit from some help.
I have performed some market research and there really seems to be some decisions to be made.
- Do you want to concentrate on seasoned notes or new notes?
- Do you want to concentrate on the note owner or the professional who can
lead you to the note owner?
Any others you would like to fill in here?
- I am open to both seasoned and unseasoned notes. I haven’t been playing the game yet so I am really out of touch with my market. The area where I live is really hot right now and seems to be a fairly strong sellers market.
However, there is a ton of developing going on and I believe that the new note side may be a good place to start.
In most of your material you seem to pursue the seasoned existing notes? Am I off base here? What do you suggest?
- In most of your material you go after both. I intend to, but I am not sure where to start first. I am planning on developing a flyer or fax and go after the RE agents and Title companies. I have been a little reserved in doing so because I feel you need to establish professionalism from the start. I don’t want to start off with a bad taste in the mouth of the local players.
I don’t think it’s not analysis paralysis that I am experiencing. I am just looking at this HUGE elephant to eat and not sure where to take the first bite. FEAR is part of it, I’ll admit. However, I want to start off on the right foot and establish myself/my company as being professional from the start.
What would you have this aspiring note professional do next?
Thanks to all of my fellow CRE Online friends,
Dan Matejsek
P.S. I look forward to this being a continuing educational experience for all of us.
