Home sellers are not pickup up the phone

[Sean Dezoysa]

Only about 1 in 10-15 of the homeseller leads I'm working pick up the phone. My leads come from wholesalers in my areas (I ask them for their leads who they declined to do business with in an attempt to work some creative finance deals with the same leads).

I have asked my VA to switch phone numbers in case hers is marked as spam. Also to buy a local number. And try sending SMS as well. We may also try calling multiple times per day though that can backfire if overdone.

Usually when we tell the partner wholesaler of the issue, they'll say to send an SMS or "I'll try calling them" but that's the last we hear.

Just curious if others faced this issue and how you solved it.
