50 Ways To Dominate Your Local Wholesale Market “It’s As Easy As Turning On A Light Switch”

1. Assignments: Don't rely on just assigning the contract forever. Use them to build up working capital and then buy the houses for cash to sell for top dollar. When you only use assignments the clock is ticking by every passing day. The deal may be a good deal. However if you don't find a buyer in time you could be losing out on profit if you bought the home with cash and waited patiently to find a buyer. 

2. REO Agents/Brokers: Build relationships with REO agents. Be prepared to give them 100% of their commissions, and possibly doing a few other things under the table that I can’t talk about on this wall (but are very common if you want to get an upper hand on your competition). 

3. Foreclosure Auctions: If you have cash or a partner that will fund your deals bid on local foreclosures either LIVE or you will have to bid online. Make sure not to over pay. 


4. Private Sellers: You can Prospect for profit to find vacant houses, write down the address, find the owner in public records and contact them either through www.whitepages.com or calling 411 to get their phone number. You can also send them a letter/post card offering to buy their home. Or you can locate F.S.B.O homes and contact them offering quick cash for their house


5. Create a Marketing/Advertising Campaign: make yourself stand out from the rest, in 2001 I came up with the “Cash in 3 Days For your house” campaign (before all the copy cats of course). The better your campaign the more response you will get. Make sure it solves the problem of the homeowner. 


6. Bandit Signs: Put massive bandit signs everywhere, on busy intersections, on your wholesale houses, in front of your competitors office (Lee Kearney LOL) in front of Home Depot & Lowes, everywhere (at least 200 - 500 month). Make sure to get a Google number so the local bandit police doesn't track you down.

8. Craigslist/Postlet: Advertise your good finds to sell, also look through them to find good deals to buy
