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. 7. Wrap Your Automobile/or magnetic signs: Put a wrap on your car and wrap up profits like I did in 2002 before you seen one. 8. Craigslist/Postlet: Advertise your good finds to sell, also look through them to find good deals to buy 9.

Step 1- Set your Outcome: How many cash buyers do you want to have and by when. You should at least try the strategy for 30 days straight. Step 2 - Focus: How much time per day can you put towards only finding cash buyers. Remove all distractions, TV, Email, phone, Facebook etc. Ask yourself, "Is what I'm doing right now getting me closer to my goals?" Step 3 - Energy : Be willing to do what the average person wont do. I.E. going outside your comfort zone, constant positive attitude, no excuses etc. Step 4 - Leverage: Other peoples time, reputation , money experience. Get a mentor, get someone to help you, 2-4 people are better than one. Make a competition out of it who can find the most cash buyers. Step 5 - Commit: Don't quit. Have an accountability partner that reminds you of your goals everyday. Review your goals and plan twice a day. In my opinion, the fastest way to build your buyers list is to get on the phone and call people. Avoid online at first. A lot of cash buyers are also too busy working to be searching for people online which makes you a VALUABLE asset to their team once you find them. Outcome is: 50 Cash Buyers ready to buy properties. Action Step: Contact 100 Real Estate professionals and get add them to your list. The benefit to them is, if they refer a cash buyer that closes on a property you have under contract they will receive a lead generation fee/present of your choice. Also ask for 3 Referrals to call. Contacts per day: 14 (with leverage you can get that to 3-5 calls per day or zero) Process: speak to 10 x each profession per week. 1) Contractors, Tradespeople 2) Real Estate Lawyers 3) Home Depot/ Lowes, hardware employees 4) Insurance Brokers 5) Building Inspectors 6) Wholesalers 7) Hard Money Lenders 8) Real Estate Brokers and Realtors 9) Buyers at Real Estate Auctions 10) Bankers ( Secret Weapon ) After 1 week you should be at your goal of 50 cash buyers/investors. Ninja Tip: Have a script ready with what you want to say and common questions you get asked. Stay tuned for my next blog on what to do once you have tons of cash buyers. P.S.
