I'm not sure if that means its cost prohibitive or my competitors are not savvy enough to ad it to their marketing campaigns?

Other than the "I buy houses cash" campaigns, how else do you seasoned rehabbers find deals.

Kelly I looked at recruiting agent for my firm years ago.At one point I did an active campaign and had about 45 agents at my firm at one time.I have found most agents feel entitled or won't follow the steps you tell them to be successful.They will skip some steps because they are lazy and want to "get rich quick" like the rest of the population which is why so many fail.If I add an agent say on a 70/30 split then I have to take time from my own deals where I make 100 percent to make 30 with them.The training and getting over their mindset takes so much more time than me doing my own deals.This is why I have only 7 agents right now.I got rid of the rest.Many companies try the 100 percent model but you get either new agents having no experience,part-time agents who are rusty,child support demands,irs tax liens,license lapses for education and or non-payment of dues etc.It is a huge headache to keep up with for a low return.If you go the other route you can train new agents for a fat split before they leave the business or train a select few agents that you want to feed leads to on your team.I just focus now on my own investment purchases and my own commercial listings.

That is an excellent format for new investors looking to meet and network with other investors.FYI: I recently did a bandit sign campaign in western MA and it worked very well.

Besides doing a Direct Mail campaign, like Josh mentioned networking would be the route to take to locate these deals.

Getting a positive response from your mail campaign may be 12 points.

You can donate to your non profit as a business and receive tax deductions and use that to fuel the revival campaign.

"The American dream" of home ownership is nothing but a marketing campaign.

I have also found that being an active blogger can help you with your search engine optimization campaign.

They can now have an advertising campaign about BOA helping less fortunate in these hard times.
