Hi all,
What the heck is a bird dog, I kinda get the idea but I’m confused.
First Q: Can and/or should I use a bird dog if I am doing wholesale only?
Second Q: How do I find my bird dog?
Third Q: How much should I pay a bird dog?
Fourth Q: Do you have a sample contract for wholesaler and bird dog?
I have a lot more Q’s but will stop here - Thanks All !
:banghead
Recruiting bird dogs is something I was forced to do when I first started, I didn’t have a penny to do marketing. So I placed free ads on CL that I buy houses for cash and I placed free ads on CL for property finders (bird dogs).
If you want to torture yourself, try to get lazy ass people to find properties for you, my latest recruitment campaign I got over 60 replies and only 1 person is sending me addresses. But he’s sent a lot of addresses.
So I still use them, bcuz over the last year I did 6 deals from my bird dogs, what’s really crazy is once I pay a bird dog their $2,000 finders fee in cash I never hear from them again.
So, it’s a number game with the bird dogs also.
Thanks for the reply.
I think I’ll wait to see if I want to try that route.
I am placing ads for “we buy houses” and have contacted some property flippers asking them what criteria and locations they are looking for so I can try to get an idea of what I should look for.
It’s funny - I’m taking your advice and just jumping right in without all the “know how, when, where, and feeling a bit clue less” but at least I’m moving forward - HA HA
