Narrow your scope of properties and become more targeted. I get calls from people every day that are just wasting my time and theirs because they have no idea about the market or my property. They call and ask if I am interested to sell. Well the answer is not really but if the right price of course. From this response you should ALWAYS make an offer, at least something even if I just say no thanks. But in reality these people never follow up, never get to a number so I don’t even get to say no!
When I say narrow your focus I mean go from 1k potential to 10-15 and work them until you get to the actual owner and give them a number and they say no and don’t call me again or get off my property. Then get another 10-15 and work those. Call the owners directly and if you cannot find their phone number go knock on the door! But be prepared for when they say “how much are you offering”. Know the market and know how to make sight unseen offers. Contingencies can be verbal, such as is the property in good condition with no major repairs needed, etc.
