., 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.

Local agents who work with investors typically have pocket listings or know someone in their office who does, Facebook ads, website, word of mouth, signs on your car, direct mail, SEO, door knocking, etc are all options for you.

I am having lunch with a friend tomorrow who is KILLING IT with SEO and PPC. 

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.

It is inefficient because people don't open mailers and when they do open them they feel tricked.Second, it is the lists that are fundamentally flawed too:They are saturatedThey do not target motivation.Again it is PPC FB ads and SEO that will have MOTIVATED sellers contact you on their on initiative!

Obviously the best form of lead gen is SEO and there is  nothing better than this... no room for arguing,debate or opinions.

Just some food for thoughts -Lots of opportunities to optimize land use code for profits.Still a very strong economy here.Amazon stock is at all time high. 

As I am reading through Daniel Rusteen’s book on optimizing your Airbnb, a lot of questions are coming to mind. #1 question so far:What insurance do I need outside of my homeowners insurance?

Alongside cohosting, I offered market and competitive analysis, listing revamp, listing and pricing optimization, and social posting for my clients.

Except for a few, select situations the whole concept of whole life insurance is sub-optimal.
