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.

The best way to find off market commercial and multifamily properties is to compile lists through a paid service like List source, Reonomy and CoStar or you can use free resources like Loopnet, CREXI, Craigslist, tax database, brokers, property managers, title companies, multi family inspectors, appraisers, landscapers and other companies that service commercial and multifamily properties and driving for dollars.The real key is in how you approach the owners and then the follow up.

It's a great place to invest, property and neighborhood-wise; but you can also compile a superior group to build on.

In my case I'd be sending someone to the courthouse to compile lists of probate leads with properties in the estate.Per hour sounds cheaper to me and more secure to them (people don't know at first glance what the work entails).

That said, he closes very quickly, gives me great REI guidance, pushes for a high appraisal based off data he compiles, and offers a 30 year fixed rate.

This doesn't mean fulfill it, but just respond.Depending on the request and how much is required to compile it, they are allowed to charge fees.

Then do the dirty work to compile those lists.

If the numbers work and you look at them and they check out, then it sounds like you'll be saving time not compiling your own portfolio of 6 units. 

I'm currently working on my pitch and compiling questions to ask.Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks
