Free Info........

Google.... Real Estate Investor Groups, Real Estate Investor, Real Estate Investors, Real Estate training, Wholesale, Wholesale Training, Motivated Seller Leads, Motivated Sellers, How to Find Motivated Sellers, ........ Google works like magic for free info ;)

Do the exact same for YOUTUBE... FREE INFO, FREE VIDEOS, .... Yes there will be people selling their stuff, however there is some KILLER FREE INFO on YOUTUBE!!!!!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST ACTUALLY MOST IMPORTANT .....

GET A LIBRARY CARD AND HIT UP THE REAL ESTATE SECTION READ EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON WHOLESALING THEN PUT IT TO ACTION!!!! .......

GO FIND SOME MOTIVATED SELLERS WILLING TO SELL FOR 50% OR BELOW CURRENT MARKET VALUE OR ARV / AFTER REPAIR VALUE MINUS REPAIRS THEN IF YOU ARE READY AND FEEL COMFORTABLE LOCK IT UP UNDER CONTRACT YOURSELF IF NOT HAVE ANOTHER INVESTOR YOU TRUST HELP YOU......... FIRST STEP IS TO SOAK UP MUCH FREE INFO YOU CAN.

SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND :)

P.S. SAVE THE 12K

HAPPY INVESTING

Roy,

Sorry for being vauge It is all subjective what people call leads. I am referring to some contact with the homeowner ... you send a letter they respond then you have contact or a "lead". If I send a 1000 letters and 100 respond then my response rate is 10% and I have 100 leads... Now that is not saying they will all be deals so then it comes down to what's a "hot lead" / "warm lead" / or a "dead lead" ..... My goal is to close 1 out of 10 leads.... I would be a 10% closer but in this business that could be a FAT PAYCHECK....:) Hope that answered your question.

Happy Investing

"Some of the best buyers do not own computers"

Rob,

Fantastic quote. This is true not only do these buyers not own computers they may only answer newspaper adds, bandit signs, and phone calls.... Hmmm something to think about. David, "If you have a great deal buyers will come"...(Field of Dreams / Real Estate Statement....lol)

P.S. Rob great name..... You beat me too it "Rob the House Guy"...lol

Happy Investing.

If it is a REO that you are Wholesaling be careful about marketing Bandit Signs in the yard of the property. (AGENTS DO NOT LIKE THAT ;)) Absoultley hit the intersections and main street that the property is on.

Michelle,

Thanks for the response, I have a 200 yellow letter campaign going out this week, and if all goes well there will be 800 to follow the following week. I have found Bandit Signs if consistently put out will get some great action as well. Just have to keep the marketing going at all times.... :)Happy Investing
