Ways to connect with cash buyers

[Sa'Mara Roberts]

Hello BiggerPockets community!

I’m Sa'Mara Roberts, and I’ve been active in real estate wholesaling for four years, focusing on land properties. While I can’t promote my company directly, I’m looking to connect with cash buyers in key markets such as Florida, Arizona, Michigan, Alabama, Nevada, Ohio, Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia.

I’d love to hear from anyone who has successfully built relationships with cash buyers.

• What strategies or platforms have you found most effective for connecting with them?
• Are there specific networking events or forums within the BiggerPockets community that you recommend?

Thank you for your insights! I’m eager to learn and connect with others in the industry.

Best,
Sa'Mara

Most of the big land wholesalers whole-tale the deals, meaning they actually buy/close on the land (using their own money or other people's money) and then list on the MLS to sell, because it is very difficult to find buyers without widely marketing it. As opposed to fixer SFRs, you can figure out who a lot of potential buyers are, and assign the contract during escrow. But for land, it's not like that in most cases. So they try to buy it at 1/5 the value, approx and then list for 2/3 the value approx on the MLS. Look for podcast episodes with Ray Zhang and other guys like him. I sell land as an agent, I've been a land broker for 15 years, focused on Southern California, FYI. Good luck!
