I know i'm late but, thanks. A lot to learn here
I agree with the other readers.
A LOT of work put in to create the great advice, suggestions and info in this thread.
Building a buyers list is more important to me than building a sellers list. With my buyers lists, I'm able to make multiple strings of income, and depending on my buyers for being repeat clients.
I wholesale, co wholesale, and market various products and services to my buyers lists. This is why anyone who I mentor or have one on one consultations with, I always advise them to have strong and reliable performing buyers lists. The longest it's ever taken me to move a property through my buyers list is three weeks.
The crazy part is, I stumbled across much of the strategy I use to build my buyers lists by trial and error. Totally awesome experience! :-D
