Marketing and finding sellers! Sub2
After so many of you have helped me clarify my motives and define exactly what I should do to safely invest under sub2, I am curious about one more thing before I get started. How in the world do I find sellers? Who exactly am I looking for? and how do I know which neighborhoods are best and which ones to stay away from?
I have many tools I know I can use, whether passive or active advertising, but I am looking for maybe which specific is most effective and how to approach a seller after I have their attention. Also, if I haven't gotten their attention, as one mentor has pointed out to me, I don't want to force them into it, I want them to be 100% on board and confident, so how do I make them feel that way and grab their attention from the first call/open house/ mailing/ or which ever mode of approach I end up going with.
Once again you guys are awesome and have helped so much. I hope my questions are helpin you in some way as well!
Thanks,
