Lead generation in Sonoma County

Posted

I have recently moved to Sonoma County CA, Santa Rosa proper. My flyers came in the mail yesterday from which I went out door knocking. This will be my main source for leads. When I lived in the LA area their seemed to be so many FSBO's selling on craigslist and other misc websites, but up here I can't seem to find too many to call. I want another way to lead source so when I get home from work I can call on people. What are some of the ways you guys find your leads?

I'm very much open to connect with some investors out here or even some agents/brokers, so if you'd like to meet, let me know!

P.S. I'm hungry.

The problem in Santa Rosa is that there is so much money chasing so little property that it makes it tough to find deals. Folks can list their home on the MLS in the morning and have an offer before lunch at full retail, even if it needs work.

It's not impossible to find great deals, it's just not easy. 8 years ago I could buy a couple of houses a week without any problem. These days, it's slim pickings. 

If you do find one and want to wholesale it, look me up, I'm a buyer.
