Hey Adam, could be scripting related. Phone time is like time on stage. How are you approaching the people? How is your data selected? There could be a lot of variables.

If your starting to stress on earnings you just need to remember the lag time from finding a lead to closing to get cash (If your paid per deal).

See if your investors will pay for your time per hour at a low rate with a bonus structure for deals. At that point you may find you get higher quality data or more support from them.

 My data comes from propstream. The same as every other investor. I think the problem is the south florida market itself. There's more people moving in state then out

I've been calling for an investor down in the South Florida area. Made 100k dials 5k contacts and only made 3 deals with a net profit of 17k as of 2020. I made more working 15$ and hour. I've started working for more investors, for 3 months now and I haven't had a deal in 5+ months. I'm starting to thing that the market isn't the best and I'll have better luck working a job. I'm not looking for motivational speech but a cold logical answer, on what I should do. 

Can anyone help?

If I have a motivated seller how many times should I follow up. We signed a contract a week ago and my partner has called around 5 times in the last 4 days. Is this excessive or is it reasonable?

After Wholesaling for a year so far and only bringing in 3 deals so far I'm looking into the 3d home tour business to help other investors and agents market their properties without needing to go on appointments. How many of you guys have used the service before and have you found it helpful? Is that market over saturated too?

I've been in wholesaling for a year so far working under another wholesaler as an acquisitions manager. I'm here in the south florida market. I've only done three deals so far. Is that considered average by any means? Should I be doing more or is that impressive? I've made so many cold calls. 92k to be exact with 5k contacts. I don't have any additional marketing going on. Can anyone provide some help if this is normal? Is the Miami market too competitive?

Is there anything I should know about a property before investing in the tax lien of it? Should I find if there are any other liens on it? Or am I safe to just invest on any over the counter liens because it’s backed by the city that my investment will be returned?

Post: How to get offers accepted?

I’m cold calling and mailing vacant, per-foreclosure, absentee owner properties. The company I hired to cold call is giving me 2 leads a day but they aren’t wholesale friendly. They’re in perfect condition. And the homeowners want market value for their property. These are vacant and pre-foreclosures. They aren’t budging on my offers.

How do I get my offers accepted?

And is there a way to filter them to-get owners that are desperate?

(1)How do get them to accept the offer?

(2)is there a way to filter them more so I can get owners that are more desperate to accept my offers?

Post: Outsourcing cold calling

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a third party cold calling company/service. I have access to 3000 homeowners and their properties with their phone numbers. It would take me several months to go through all of them. I’ve met some companies that could go through 500 numbers in an 8 hour shift. The agents of these services would just sell initially and then set appointments with me. Anyone have suggestions of companies they’ve succeeded with?

My annual income is 20k yearly. And I have decent credit. How would I begin to build a rental property empire? I have around <10k or more saved. should I continue to save until  I can afford or jump into it?
