What is the most effective and efficient way to find a Cash Buyers ?

[Rachel Pruitt]

I am in the Florida Market and market on various platforms. I am collecting names and numbers however, I am unclear if I am collecting true investors. As real estate professionals, we all hear the same hesitations when it comes to investing " in this market".  How do you vet the investor from the window shoppers ? 

Considering starting a network of investors in my area. Any insights or advice is welcomed and greatly appreciated!

I think the best way is probably to meet them at real estate investing meetups. That way you know everyone there is a real estate investor or at least an aspiring one. In particular you'll want to target flippers and agents that work with a lot of investors. You're going to have to talk to a lot of people because most people are NOT serious buyers. And while they may not be a serious buyer today, sometime in the future they may be or they may know someone that IS a serious buyer.
