I've rejected people based on specific social media behaviors, like tons of posts about smoking weed which is illegal in my state, but I've never rejected someone just because they use a specific social media platform.

I give very little weight to major media.

I've been reading everything I can find about real estate investing for the last 3-4 years, listening to podcasts for just as long, and following all of my favorite investors on social media.

You can also buy lists from companies like list source and there are some REI software companies that have a cash buyer search feature.Best way to find motivated sellers is to purchase lists and compile lists from city and county for 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, probate, divorce, high equity, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, foreclosure sites, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.If you have the funds you can run TV commercials, do pay per click/adwords, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online advertising and social media postings.Bottom line is consistency.

Today's goals were:  read at least 30 minutes about real estate, listen to at least 20 minutes of BP podcasts (I have a 12 minute commute), analyze at least two deals (i usually have at least that many from my realtor feed e-mails), spend at least 30 minutes on social media increasing my social network (posting on BP, looking for meetups, connecting on FB, etc).Best WishesScott Rogers (Neenah, WI)

Just because they blast social media content and fluff does not make someone credible.

My circles are small, I’m not on social media, and I’m not particularly sociable as a person so finding helpful connections is difficult.

We have a website for our properties as part of our property management company but we still see most of our bookings come through the booking sites or social media.
