Question about Lowball offers

[Dulce Davis]

I'm In a market with tons of other investors. Wholesalers I've met are either fast talking liars, straight up scammers, or already have a list of go to buyers. Most times the property numbers in no way calculate, and the few that would work are sold by the time I open the email/text lol. I've gotten lucky a handful of times doing lowball offers to MLS listings but it's not often enough to keep me rolling. To those who send low offers in strong investor markets; are you successful against the masses and if so, is it just a numbers game, or am I missing something? I don't have the ability to spend all the marketing dollars to get to the seller directly like the larger investors do.
