Expired Listings: The Motivated Seller Goldmine Most Investors Walk Right Past

Hey there, Cam Dunlap here.

On our last Dealmaker webinar, a student named Louise asked me about a house she spotted on her local MLS in Pennsylvania. It’s been sitting for over 150 days. The photos online still show snow on the ground — in July. They’re asking $205,000, and she wants to offer $105,000 because of all the work it needs.

Hey there, Lou Castillo from the Real Estate Wealth Network here.
