Let's say you are a cash or terms RE Investor, or want to be.

Instead of saying:

We buy houses, any location, any condition, cash in 24 hours!

You say...

We buy houses on terms or for cash, quickly!

We solve problems, like divorce, probate, bankruptcy.

We will take over your payments and lease your home, then buy it for what you owe!

No equity no problem!

No Commissions or Closing costs.

Call now!

Great listing - sales agents will steer away their clients from low ball cash offers.  See

So...how do you work with listing agents? 

If you are doing a lease option assignment.....

Have the home seller attach their listing agreement to an addendum or a broker's affidavit, give the agent one month's rent today and their commission when the home sells (closes).  You can have the broker's affidavit recorded as a lien to protect the broker's commission.   See an attorney.

There are 20 million houses with little equity out there, purchased at the top of the market (2006 - 2007).  These home sellers can't afford to sell traditionally with an agent.

Tell the agents..

Offer cash or terms at the same time of your listing appointment.

Network with agents.  Offer them full commission on their "thin equity deals".
