Quote from @Daniel Gould:

So it appears to me that while there's a free plan available to anyone in Invelo but the BP Pro membership includes access to the "Starter" Plan which currently costs $41/month otherwise - so this is a notable "value add" to the BP Pro Plan. In reviewing the side-by-side comparison of Invelo plans I do NOT see any skip tracing feature listed. Where and at what cost is skip tracing available in Invelo? 

Hi Daniel, Jenell here with Invelo. Thanks for the questions! I wanted to jump on and share the awesome perks that BP and Invelo are offering for BP Pro Members and answer your skip tracing questions. 

Below are the Invelo plans and perks: 
Free Plan receives $50 wallet credit
Starter Plan receives $50 wallet credit and 15% off original plan subscription cost
Growth Plan receives $100 wallet credit and 15% off original plan subscription cost
Professional Plan receives $100 wallet credit and 15% off original plan subscription cost

Skip tracing is available in the platform for all plans and the pricing can be found here (please scroll to bottom where it says In App Pricing. 

Please let us know if you have any other questions! 

Best,

A majority of my deals have come from going direct to seller. Even prior to joining their team, I have used Invelo. The software allows me to find distressed sellers in my market, send them marketing and manage my prospects, leads and deals. If you would like to check out the free version, you can do that here. Please let us know if you have any questions as we are happy to help! 

Hey @Logan Messenger DM can be great, but it can get expensive quick if you are not hyper focussed on the highest quality prospects. If a seller has several things going on they are likely to be more motivated to sell than a seller that has one layer of motivation. If you'd like, check out Invelo for an all in one solution to finding, marketing to and managing your off market prospects, leads and deals. The software does a great job of helping you identify sellers that are more motivated to sell. You can try the free version here.

Hi! @Jacob Heckford I am a member of the Invelo Team and also a fellow investor. The short answer is Yes, absolutely! Using a product like Invelo or Propstream will be a game changer for your business. This is an opportunity to take your prospecting, marketing, lead and deal management to a whole new level. I will share some insights on both platforms and hopefully that will help you make an informed decision that suits you best. 

Propstream has been a popular platform for prospecting, marketing with some CRM capabilities. Propstream offers extensive property data, such as transaction history, tax, foreclosure and upcoming property auctions. They offer features like skip tracing, deal analyzer, nationwide search and MLS comps. Propstream has proven to be a handy tool for brokers, agents and real estate investors.

Invelo is a real estate investment platform that offers a true one-stop solution for real estate investor's needs.

The Starter plan (which is free) is really designed to support newbie investors, as all of the available presets are what they should be using in building lists and sending marketing campaigns.The Individual plan is perfect for the investor who has established investing strategies and is looking to scale. The Professional plan is a great space for seasoned vets who need a robust system where their team can work through the entire acquisition process.

Your BP Pro Membership gets you 15% off the Invelo subscription price and $100 in in-app wallet credits for paid plans. 

Let me know if you have any other questions!

 Jenell,

Thank you for responding. Jenna with Invelo set me up with the free version at BPCON and I am just now digging in the software. I have started building a prospect list and seeing what comes from it. I'm sure I will have questions along the way.

Oh very cool! Jenna is great! Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions.
Are you a member of our Invelo Community? It is a great place to get questions answered and learn from other investors using the platform. 

 Hi Jenna, 

I am also trying to start my list of potential properties in my area. I was wondering if anyone from Invelo or just someone who uses it could walk me through an actual list just to make sure I am doing it correctly? 

Thanks, Jackie from Ohio :-)

 Hi Jackie!

I would be happy to help you with this! Please message me your email address and I will send you a link to schedule some time with me.

Best,

Jenell

Hi! @Matt Mancuso What are you currently doing to find off market properties? What kinds of properties are you looking for? I am happy to share some insight, but it would be helpful to know a little more information. 

Quote from @Hamed Rahimi:

Hi Everyone,

I like to know what has been your experience managing the rental properties yourselves and what property management software/tool you have used. I have seen what Hemlane offers and it seems like a great tool to use but like to know if better options are out there.

 Hi Hamed! I have always used a PM, but that was primarily because I was out of state. If you are looking to do it yourself, maybe check out RentRedi? BiggerPockets recently partnered with them. 

Hi @Peter Exavier! Great questions! If you are looking to produce niche prospects (I wouldn't consider them a lead until you have made contact with them) then yes, D4$ and countless other county records are a great place to find motivated sellers. If you are looking to build a list of quality prospects, check out Invelo. This all in one tool will help you build, manage and market to a list of prospects. Invelo offers a bunch of valuable education in the Academy section of the platform and the opportunity to connect with other investors in the Invelo community. The Stater Plan is free and will give you an opportunity to get started on your investing journey today! Please let me know if you have questions. I am happy to help!

Quote from @Sean Starkey:

What are some tips on where to find off market deals? I am looking to get more short term rentals 

Thanks!

Hi Sean! I think the STR market is a bit of a unique space right now. Have you looked on the main STR sites to see if anyone has a listing that looks mediocre? Maybe the photos, description and reviews leave something to be desired? I would market to those people. In addition, as an investor, I like to source my own off market deals. I have sourced them through, direct mail, door knocking, cold calling and referrals. Prior to joining the team here at Invelo, I used the platform to build, manage and market to my prospects. I see you are a BP Pro Member too. BP recently partnered with Invelo to offer Pro Members access to Invelo. Let me know if you are interested in more info.

Quote from @Erin Estes:

What I'm hearing is that Invelo is an all-in-one REI platform that combines list generation and a CRM with marketing tracking and a transaction tracker and has features like skip tracing. Am I right on this? So instead of using different platforms for the different aspects of acquisition and disposition transactions, it's all in one place and easy to keep track of everything? I am looking for a tool that will do all the things I need it to do as a real estate investor from the beginning so I don't build systems using a ton of different platforms only to find out later that there's a better way and I have to re-learn a new platform and transfer all my data and transactions and contacts into a new platform.

 Hi Erin, yes, you are on the right track and thanks for the comment! In addition to what you mentioned about marketing, you can also send out your marketing from the platform. Everything is all in one place and easier to manage. 

In addition to being a great all in one tool, don't miss out on our Invelo Community and Academy! You can access it through the dashboard in Invelo.
