Thanks Cheyenne! You work with or have any data providers for probates that you have used in the past?

Interested in diversifying who I contact besides Tax Delinquents and Absentee owners. Just wanted to know if anyone had opinions about working Probates in terms of the timeline? Whether or not they're more profitable from an Avg. lead standpoint? And if they would recommend any good data providers for Probate (for Skiptracing) etc.? Any thoughts?

Is there a business in the real estate investment world for investors who want to purchase at a discount but with a tenant in place? Seem to be coming across multiple properties that has tenant in place and landlord wanting to sell and at "discount pricing". Thoughts? Feedback?

Brother I always appreciate the insightful, witty, & at times sarcastic writing that you put in to everyone's blogs and discussion. I will for sure hit you up for your services at the right time. Good luck today. Thanks for taking the time to spread knowledge, wisdom and humor. Have a good week by you. Stay warm. 

@Jerryll Noorden got a marketing question...in your opinion does it make a difference if I'm creating landing & squeeze pages without having a website?

JN...thanks for taking the time to give me the skinny. Will keep at it and reach out to you sooner than later. Thanks again. JQ

If you mention any one of those topics from Direct Mail to SEO to Drive By... you can get a million different answers. All proclaiming to be the correct answer. I can attest to you that after 15+ years in the real estate business (working as an broker-agent) that marketing of all forms works. Whether it be print, sphere of influence, the MLS portal for leads, and word of mouth from 1 agent to another agent...all works over time. Work the plan and plan the work! Now as I shift to wear my hat as an investor (for myself) I find myself right back to square one feeling like a newbie (at least in the marketing forum as it pertains to building a real estate investment business). I agree...you need money to make money. In a competitive market like S. Florida I still see and believe that there are deals to be had. Maybe not as many potential deals providing skyrocket returns and maybe a LOT of competition. I get it. If there is anything that being an endurance triathelete has taught me is that you are in competition with yourself to 'run your own race'. You can listen to others' advice which I think is imperative to 'finish the race'. With that said...what I would love to know or hear back from BP forum is what is a cost effective way to build a funnel of leads in the first place. I am all about leveraging time so I am not going to make Drive By's or Door knocking my #1 & #2 ways to get business. But if direct mail is the way to go...what is a good 'rule of thumb' for the minimum amount or DM pieces that should go out monthly? I know that on average it is 4-6 months of mail pieces before you start to see the fruits of your labor. Or is it squeeze/landing pages via Facebook marketing campaigns? over the same period of 4-6 months? There isn't confusion on my end but there seems to be many opinions that split the BP forum to one side or the other and yet from a dollars and sense stand point that makes no sense. I know this for myself because I read the forums almost every day now for the past 2-3 months. There has to be 1 way that is more cost effective & efficient to maximize the time to be able to have enough leads to systematically analyze and make offers on. The question I have...which one is it?! Love to hear back. Thank you.

@Ryan Deasy Don't want to get stuck in analysis paralysis. Been a broker/agent 15 years. What podcast would you recommend listening to that will cover REI marketing basics etc.? Thanks Ryan for the input.

Finally...someone who tells like it is. Thank you for the refreshing, direct, no frills answer. Been reading a lot of posts on marketing and it was a welcome response.
