8 Ways to Quickly Build a Buyers List
In a conversation with Connor Steinbrook, who is an online poker star turned real estate investor that specializes in wholesaling and fix-and-flipping, he provided 8 different techniques on how to quickly build a buyers list.
1. Post squeeze pages on online classified sites
2. Drive traffic to squeeze pages via social media
Like Connor, you can even hire virtual assistants to run all of your social media sites and marketing platforms.
3. Create YouTube videos with annotations linked to your lead capture page
4. Post ads to Craigslist
5. Put up bandit signs
6. Go to other, larger wholesaler property showings and network with the investors that are viewing the property
7. Go down to the city auction and network with the investors in attendance
8. Google
Step 1 – Type “We Buy Houses (insert city name)” into the search field
Step 2 – Hit “search” and the results will include both paid advertisements and top organic searches
Step 3 – Click on Top Hit
Step 4 – Capture email address and add to buyers list. There are two ways to obtain an email address
- Many companies will have their email addresses listed directly on their site.
- If email isn’t listed, then you will have to call the company. If you have to go the phone route, it is important to be respectful of their time, so don’t ask for their buying criteria because you are just going to annoy people.
- The only goal of the phone call is to capture their email address, which can be done rather quickly.
- When you call them up, say, “hi, my name is XXXX and I came across your information online. I am selling discount properties in your area. Would you like to be added to my buyers list?”
- If they say yes, ask them to text you their email address so that you don’t write it down wrong.
Step 5 – Repeat
- You can build a 100-person buyers list in a week following this process

Squeeze pages: If you Google "squeeze pages," a really informative blog post by WordStream with a step-by-step process on how to create a squeeze page i.e. lead capture forms
Bandit Signs: There are many different forms of bandit signs out there. These are the "we buy houses" flyers on electrical posts, bus bench ads, lawn signs (similar to political signs you see in peoples yards during election seasons, etc.). However, I would check in with your local city codes to determine where bandit signs are and aren't allowed!
