Give it a try, what have you got to lose? I found that in my market seller's get REALLY pissed off when I called on an ad they placed a month ago or longer. I find calling ads as soon as they come out is the best, at least around here, maybe people are friendlier in BC, haha! Important Tip: When calling FSBOs you need to use an investing technique that adds value to the seller. I think it's a complete waste of time to call FSBOs trying to take over payments at their mortgage balance, or buy at huge cash discounts. You need to offer cooperative assignments or straight retail flips. You'll only make about the same as an agent, but that's better than calling 500 ads and being hung up on 500 times.
