Besides the BP forums, how can the major social media sites such as instagram, facebook, twitter, linkedin etc... be of use to a real estate professional or real estate investor?

Lot of reputable syndicators on BP and linked in..

., TV commercials, radio ads, motivated seller websites, SEO, pay per click/adwords, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online advertising and boosted/promoted social media postings.Bottom line is integrity and consistency.

I am not so worried about facebook because my personal profile is private and I will be using my business page for real estate purposes, not worried so much about LinkedIn either.

@Pierre Alexandre Lidji You can purchase lists with different motivations like absentee owners, 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, evictions, probate, divorce, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, motivated seller website with SEO, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.If you have a big budget you can do radio, TV and billboards.

If you are interested I'd love to chat with some of you and perhaps connect on LinkedIn!

You might also post the link to your facebook, your linked in, your twitter and all social media. 

If you're on Linkedin connect with me there as well.

I reach out on LinkedIn
