So I have ventured into the world on online marketing because even though it works, I know there has to be a better/more efficient way of gaining leads besides DM.  Has anyone here had any success with Facebook PPC for gaining seller leads? 

This post is a good read.  I'm a DM guy that's taking a dive into online marketing, and considering using FB.  I have learned that you can't just push your offer on folks, you have to educate them.  Also, your website has to be able to convert the people that's actually clicking on your site.  A site that educates a seller has a greater chance of converting than a site that only says "submit your property info here".

I'm gonna piggy back off Michael and say getting educated is priority #1.  Being well versed in the business will do wonders for your entrepreneur journey.  Welcome and don't be afraid to ask questions!

You've been reading and studying long enough... Just take massive action, and I would also suggest a coach/mentor that is actively doing deals.  Fyi...I mailed 500 letters to delinquent tax owners and have one deal set to close this week and another under contract.  Just gotta take that leap.

Good job! What type of list did you market to and how many calls you received? @Steven Thompson

It's listed on the county tax site @Andrew Herrig

@Andrew Herrig I'm mailing to delinquent tax properties that are absentee owned, and have a suit/judgement against them.

It's crazy how different response rates can be. I just mailed out 100 pieces, received 8 calls, and have a possible deal. I'm learning the more targeted the list, the better/more qualified response you will receive. But hey, could be the luck of the draw. Stay at it!

The owner told me that he "carried the note and the buyer paid it off". The property is occupied by the buyer, but no one can get in contact with him. I know its a deal in here somewhere, just need to figure out the steps to clear the confusion.

Basically, the original owner sold the property subject to the existing mortgage and left it in his name. Once it was paid off, the new owner never got the property transferred in his name. The original owner kept telling him to do it, but he never did. Now the taxes are 5k behind, in the original owner's name, and it's going to tax sale soon if something doesn't happen. @Chris K.
