@Jonathan Rivera as @Lydia T. said you would just be buying the same leads as everyone else.  This info is just aggregated from list brokers and ultimately city, county and credit reporting agencies. You can get the same info direct from the sources yourself. You can purchase lists with different motivations like absentee owners, 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, evictions, probate, divorce, etc. and mail or cold call.

Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.

You can use pay per click/adwords, motivated seller website with SEO, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.

If you have a big budget you can do radio, TV and billboards. Lots of bigger outfits do well with these mediums.

@Jonathan Rivera Keep in mind that all these “lead generation sites” make their money by selling the same leads to as many people as possible. So if you are looking to compete against more experienced investors for deals that are already pretty skinny...then sign up! If not, I suggest driving for dollars to start with and creatively finding your own deals. Just my .02

OK fair enough.

OK let me provide value.

I checked out your site.

The first thing you need to do, is gt an investor carrot website.

I know what you may  be thinking. They all look the same and ugly... believe me, if you want leads that is the first step.

Then,  I can tell you exactly how to set it up. We can do that together if you like right here on the forums?

No "belittling." Tons of fakes out there and the screenshot I've seen you post a dozen times or more is the same one. Just making sure you're legit. Might like to work together in the future but before we (or before anyone works with anyone) some things need to be verified. Thank you for verifying. In the future, don't be a dick about it. It's not a good way to attract business..."fyi"

That being said, I am interested in how you do what you do and how I can do the same.

Will Barnard · Answer

Your own website driving traffic to it from motivated home sellers would be a good idea too.

Jerryll Noorden · Answer

no worries bro. Let me know when that is done and we will do the next step

Brad Bellstedt · Answer

Thank you. I'll start working on that. My apologies for the delayed response. Must have missed the notification.

Sounds good!

Hey @Jerryll Noorden, I'm a realtor here in Las Vegas and between my partner and I, we close 30-35 transactions per year pretty consistently and have for the last couple of years. For a multitude of reasons, I decided last year to start working more with investors as a realtor. I have learned a TON about the investing game and I've been bitten by the REI bug myself. Since then, I've purchased a second property as my primary and currently rent out the first property for 200% of our FHA loan mortgage payment.

I regularly comb through the MLS and run the numbers on properties in the pursuit of a deal that I can present to an investor (providing me the opportunity to be the buyer's agent now and possibly the seller's agent in the future) but as you know, that is the most competitive marketplace and deals are getting harder and harder to come by. For that reason, I've decided to branch out and look for more off market deals to make something of. I hate to call myself a "wholesaler" because most individuals who claim to be "new wholesalers" are a joke to the investor community, and I totally understand why, but my "means to an end" look a lot like what a wholesaler would do to attract business.

Currently I am combing the BP forums, (which is why I see so many of your posts) watching YouTube videos, doing some reading, etc. in order to build a business plan and to have an A-Z understanding of how it all works. I attended my very first REIA meeting on Wednesday which was a lot of fun, and I plan to attend at least 3 months worth of events, all in an effort to get an idea of what I'm getting into. The plan is to attract more seller leads and offer them multiple outs, including listing with us in the MLS. If I have the opportunity to lock it up as a wholesale or sub-to deal, I will and then pass it on to an investor. The idea is it's somewhat of a safe play for me to learn the intricacies of the transaction while getting paid to do so. As I go, and accumulate more money, I will begin to keep more and more of those properties for flips or a good buy and hold property for myself. I'd like to have at minimum, $5,000 of passive income from rental properties by the time I am 60. That's 27 years from now and seems completely doable.

Like I said, I am just getting started and am still in the information collection stage of getting this thing off the ground so I am not ready just yet to unleash the awesome marketing capabilities you seem to possess but I do now (and have for a while) have your name down in my notes as a future reference for traversing the acquisitions portion of the business.

I don't mean any disrespect and I think if you re-read my original interjection in a different tone, you may perceive it as more of a genuine question.  I do however, see your point in my doing so on a public forum and I apologize for using the wrong platform.

I know that there are a lot of fakes out there. And I get you are mistrusting. I get it. I really wished you would have approached it differently. But lets get one thing straight. it was YOU that was a Pipi about it. You could have private messaged me, POLITELY asking to verify I am real. Or before making a public announcement and do some research on your own  to see if I am legit or not, before publicly calling me out on 3 month old screenshots... proof is proof, what does it matter how often I use the same proof? I simply returned what you dished out and it hit hard because you were simply wrong with your "read in between the lines" doubts. Also I don't feel or need to prove myself to anyone. If YOU want to work with me, it is YOUR job to find out if I am real. You don't do it by challenging me to show I am real.  You assumed I was a fake without giving me a chance.  And BTW, I have PLENTY of business, in fact I just made $101K yesterday (yup in one day). I am absolutely not that desperate for business to let people treat me rude just so I can get a client, whether or not you recognize/admit you were rude is irrelevant.  And lets face it buster, you were rude, I know it, you know it, BP knows it! Know I am extremely picky who I work with. I dont care how much money they have.

But... I guess with so many fakes out there I can't really blame you.

So how about this.

Yo! I am Jerryll. It is awesome meeting you dude. Lets start over!

you know what I hate most?

Everyone with an opinion is a self-proclaimed expert. No one does any research and everyone makes up facts and sells it as truth.

That is the reason I have screenshots of everything I claim. So people can see that I am not randomly saying stuff. Everything I say or claim is backed up with proof. (I am too lazy doing screenshots of my leads coming in every day ;) )

So no harm done my dude.

I would love to show you exactly what I do and how I do right here in the open so everyone can learn.

Tell me, what exactly do you want to know.

I think it may be easiest if you come at me with questions.

I always tell people you can do this for free. So, time to deliver!

So... shoot!

Or how about this:

Any other requests? Any specific date?

Want me to do a screenshot of any specific one of these leads opened up?

NO NO,,... you asked!

There are 2 kinds of people in the world.. (well there are more).

But go with me on this.

Someone see my posts and they become jealous, angry annoyed because the first thing that comes to their mind is "showing off", "fake", trying to make money, ..

These people are often insecure, they have their own demons and take it out on the world.

Then there are other people that see my posts and they think.

"Hmmm.. this dude really got it figured out. I can and should learn from him. See how I can improve my situation ".

Now you need to ask yourself. Which one are you?

Did my post do you harm? Did it offend you somehow? Well I don't even know you existed till now, and I will probably forget you exist the second I turn my (butt)cheek so how  is this doing harm?! Enough so, to go to public and try to belittle me, when I am trying to help others realize they CAN be successful without having to go bankrupt.

New year coming. Change starts from within.. fyi!
