The last house I bought, was brought to me off-market by my agent, and it's seeming that off-market is the only way to get good properties without the MLS prices.I've recently got a nice business card printed up, and would like to start a direct mailer campaign, using BatchLeads to find multifamily properties in the local towns that I wish to invest in.I have a pretty strict criteria about what I'm looking to purchase at this time:-Legal 2-or-more unit large Multifamily (not required to be owner occupied)-Each unit should be at least 3 bedrooms (so if it's a duplex, it needs to be 6+ bedrooms)-Sewer (not septic)-Gas (not oil)A lot of this information is not readily available online, so once I start my mailers, I'm sure I'm going to find people who eventually respond, but that don't have criteria which match what I'm looking for.I feel like it would be a waste if I paid a bunch of money for direct mailers, and then someone reaches out to me to sell, but their house doesn't match the criteria of what I'm looking for -- I don't know anything about wholesaling.What can I do to monetize these leads, or is the answer is that I need to learn So we believe no lead is a bad lead.

There are too many snake-oil salesmen selling lies.

They can do some repair to an old roof, then apply a plant based spray to the entire roof to replace the oils in the shingles that the sun has baked out over time.

We paint all of the trim with an oil based paint that's much more durable.

Coming from oil and gas and healthcare, we’re new to this industry but driven by the same values that guide us in life: family, hard work, and dedication.

I’ve bought coconut tree lumber for widows to fix their homes, bought a toilet for another widow and funded the purchase of piglets, eggs and bread to start livelihood projects. 

He's a snake oil salesman.

Usually when paint 'doesn't stick', it is because someone applied water based paint over oil based without priming first.

As I'm in talks with the oil company that currently owns the land, what questions should I find out from them that would help reduce any surprises?

For retail investors I would be more worried about what the sponsor does vs who they are raising from - when I see a fund start branching out and doing something not in their strike zone whether it’s crypto, oil and gas, MF, debt and mobile home parks etc that to me is a red flag - especially if they are also spending their time traveling the Public Relations circuit selling mentorship’s vs managing assets.One last thing to add, I know iof someone who had one investor for 25 million.
