Finding off market deals.

[Graham Richard Anderson]

I'm a new investor in the twin cities area. I have currently been looking at deals on the market via the mls. I am finding that these properties tend to be listed quite a bit over priced. I am going to start using some alternative marketing strategies in order to find off market deals. Just curious as to what is working for other investors out there. Thanks!

As a licensed Broker, I have bought less than 10 percent of my deals off MLS in the last 2 years. Marketing to off market sellers is where you find them. Whatever marketing platform you choose, it has to be consistent. I use direct mail, Google Adwords, Facebook, Linkedin, Craigslist, Bandit signs, and door knocking neighborhoods. Any and all of them work if you keep at it.

Happy Investing
