What Even IS a Motivated Seller in 2020?

[Erik Stark]

I have been investing full time since 2007.

When the REOs dried up, we were the first in our market (2011) to begin using direct mail and getting our portion of market share of motivated sellers who were not aware of the rising market. 

Ive been niche focused on probates, vacants, DFDs, under managed multis and distressed properties since 2011 and certainly as the market increases, the urgency has been disappearing from seller discussions. 

Is anyone operating a in a niche where there is motivation and urgency to sell a property at a FAIR price? 

Is anyone TRULY getting incoming lead gen from their marketing? 

Im curious to know what REAL investors are doing. Not looking for those webinars telling me how sellers beg them to buy their house (LOL)
