Post: How to begin making a Buyer's List?

As I stated, I'm a new investor in southern Arkansas. My first plan of action is to get into the wholesaling or simultaneous closings area of investing to build up cash for other investments.  I've located real nice properties in very good neighborhoods.  Inspected them and determined them to be good investments, but my fear of not being able to sell them have me in the "paralysis analysis" stage.  I'm gradually getting over my fears by being consistent in obtaining knowledge of what to do in this particular area of investing by finding websites like this one and REIclub.com, who have people who like to help others succeed.

So that being said, How do you go about building a buyer's list? I've subscribed to this one site with useful information, but the buyers are not from this area. I've been to the tax assessor's office but I've had no luck in finding buyers just property information and the assessment of those properties.

Is there a simpler way of finding this vital piece of needed data to get over the hump of selling my first home?  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

@Account Closed Thank you Mr. Bash for your assistance. I'm definitely interested.

@Douglas Skipworth Thank you Mr. Skipworth.  I will definitely do that. I reading the Ultimate Beginners Guide as we speak.

Thank you again and have a very Blessed day.

@Allison Lane I have a plan to start out wholesaling single-family homes and advance into the tax liens area of investing, but I know in order to do the tax lien investing I have to have cash on hand.  At the moment that's what my intentions are to start. I've inspected numerous properties to date but still haven't found that much needed motivated seller, but I will not stop.

Good luck on your flip and have a Blessed day.  Feel free to contact me, I'm ready to begin some strong business relationships here on BP.

Thank you @Deborah Hardin. Actually I'm a resident of Union County. I'm looking to start out wholesaling and progress to tax liens.  I want to do "buy and hold" deals but at the moment I'm trying to build a solid financial foundation before I get ahead of myself. 

Do you mind setting up a contact meeting with your client? I would love to get some knowledge from them on their perspective of the real estate market in Union County.

Thank you so much and have a very Blessed day

Thank you Mrs. Riedel I will definitely do that.

I'm new to the REI scene here in Arkansas, but I have done my homework, I'm constantly soaking up knowledge on everything about investing, I've been making the necessary connections to establish my team so I can be taken serious in this game. Nothing happens overnight, I understand that and respect it, and I'm definitely committed to the grind of learning and putting action to my dreams. My family deserves a better life and I do as well. So if anyone has any advice or tips to share to help make my transition smoother, all will be greatly appreciated. Have a blessed day to everyone.
