How are you marketing?

Hey all,

All my experience is in advertising and marketing but I'm not about to assume I know what works best for real estate investing. What's worked best for you in finding sellers and buyers? And what is your success story?

Dan, should you care to divulge; what is a segregated list and what qualifies as being a top ten?

I think he is talking about pre-foreclosure marketing. They find the top 10 home run deals that came up on the NOD list, and then make sure to make some form of contact with those new leads.

    I use all sorts of marketing:

    Direct mail to tired landlords.

    CL Real Estate Services.

    One of the websites performs well on certain keywords that generates a few leads each week. It would probably catch more if I put an email-optin box on there.

    I've got enough that I can handle. . . At times with each direct mail drop, I have more than I can handle.

    I've stopped:
    Newspapers -- too many tire kickers (how does this work?)
    TV - way to expensive for my market in comparison to the converted deals.
