Hi Michael,

I found my first deal by cold calling Probate leads. I pulled these directly from the county courthouse. A clerk will be able to help you with this. Usually they'll direct you to the records room but sometimes they have them online so it's a good idea to call before you go.

Divorces, Vacants, Inherited, and Tax Delinquent properties also worked well. Although a lot of it was just a numbers game. We found deals from lists of High Equity Seniors, Absentee owners, and code violations too.

Driving for dollars was also a big deal-getter for us.

Regardless of lead type, cold calling and texting was by far the most successful medium we used to get deals, followed by PPC and SEO.
Direct mail wasn't as profitable for us but the method that got us the best response rate was hand-addressed envelopes with professional typed letters.
