3 deals if you have been keeping busy!
I have been trying to do some more outside the box style marketing to potential sellers. I have done a lot of direct mail, leaving notes on houses, and cold calling. It has gotten me a few deals but i have been in a slump... Most of my mailing campaigns have been yellow letters, but I have wrote customized letters when I know more about the situation and I have done my fair share of probate letters. (which i might go back to)
I have heard people do some creative things in the past and I don't want to make excuses but the Philly suburbs are super hot right now and people are over paying like crazy. I personally can't cheat my rules just for the sake of getting a house. This is my concern with probate, simply too much competition. I have been outbid by as much as 30k on some houses... And believe me I know how to run numbers and I have tracked their progress. I literally cannot make sense of some of these peoples "investments".
I am a contractor who has only done word of mouth marketing for the construction business. Real estate requires marketing and I have a good head on my shoulders so I am gonna use it.. I don't know a ton about internet marketing but i see a lot of people talking about lead pages, click funnels, facebook ads, google adwords, seo and a few others.
Sorry if I got a little wordy here. I would just love to see what people are having the most success with recently. I believe it will help me open up ANOTHER not a replacement marketing avenue.
