Look up Barbara Isabel on socials in LA.

It is NOT like what social media or influencers try to paint, it's hard work. 

I'm pretty concerned to get into this now as Project 2025 is pretty clear about gutting HUD and many social services- the program may be greatly reduced during Trump's term, hard to say.

It can be easier than cold outreach, especially if you offer them guaranteed rent and hassle-free management.Also, marketing can really help you stand out—whether it’s through listing on multiple platforms, building a solid website, or using social media for direct bookings.

So here is what I do:1 - Get buyer criteria for what they are looking for (exact criteria)2 - Go source that criteria using data provider3 - Scrub the list and plan a marketing campaign around it (i.e) > Direct Mail > Cold Call > SMS > Online Ads > Social Media, etc4 - Once I get inbound leads coming in.

The Gator method is apparently one technique that may have some flaws that have been exposed here but may also be just the motivator for some people who would not otherwise even have taken a chance to get involved in real estate "investment."

It takes actual thought and a programmer's mind to be able to build a CRM into something that's actually effective (sure a basic person could setup a phased text message or email automation, but it's tying everything together with opportunities, automated campaign re-entry/follow-up, social media integrations/automations, etc that is the real value).

I was impressed with Jerry's scores of YouTube videos which provided helpful tips including his live phone calls demonstrating his wholesaling techniques. 

I rented before I could even put on the market with one social media post.

Network for collaboration, learn from successful investors, and discuss ROI and financing techniques for meaningful conversations with Houston investors.Good Luck!
