Let’s Talk Real Estate Investing with Sharon Vornholt
Business:Investing
Real estate investors often avoid the probate niche because they feel like they don’t know how to talk to sellers of probate property. I want to put that fear to rest today by giving you 5 tips to make this a painless conversation every time.
Remember that these are just regular people like you and me. They have suffered a loss, but now they are tasked with taking care of “the business of settling the estate.” They are anxious to sell the property in the estate so that they can move on with their lives.
