Greater Boston FSBO

Jeff Hogan

Greetings

I am new to the forums and look to contribute as much as I can.

I have a couple questions for my Boston peers. I  have a few investors that are interested in working with me. They are essential because they are covering the closing costs etc since I am new to Real Estate investing and dont yet have the startup capital.

They seek FSBO housing- What are some good ways that I can garner these listings? I know about direct mail. Are there any networks of owners I can join? It seems increasingly difficult to satisfy an established investors needs when you are just starting out. Thoughts?

Im interested in broadening my network to like minded individuals or people that have gone through this and maybe continuing the dialogue offline. I have a partner but we are in the same boat. If there are any hard lenders that may have insight this too would be invaluable- areas being East Boston, South Boston, Newton, Cambridge, North End.

My niche is multi family, 200$ cashflow per unit. ROI around 14%.

Hey @Jeff Hogan, you can try the following to find FSBO leads:

- expired and withdrawn MLS listings (they may have gotten discouraged or not wanted to pay the broker fee)

- FSBO websites

- craigslist

- zillow "make me move" properties
