What are you doing to find deals?
What are some strategies you are using to find deals? I have been investing now for about 3 years in real estate, and I'm finding it harder, and harder to find deals for my clients and myself that work. I use some mixed strategies to go on and off market, but I'm just generally curious what others are doing and finding that works for them?

Hi Adrian in Florida-
I haven't seen the sun in three months here in Michigan. :) Jealous!
You have been investing for about three years but are finding it more difficult to find deals that pencil.
I understand.
Here is what I find works for sourcing deals:
1. There are markets in Michigan where deals still pencil thankfully.
2. Property managers can be great sources for deals.
3. I network with other investor friendly Realtors in the markets I work in to help source deals.
4. Foundation repair salespeople are great sources to find deals. Offer them a bird dog fee for finding the deals.
5. Other potential bird dogs are handymen, people who clean out houses, and various house related contractors.
To Your Success!
