Well there is nothing wrong with being honest a bout it. No wonder why I am not getting a response to my ads when I am looking for cash buyers.
Interesting conversation. But I still say buyers lists are a bunch of crap! :bs
In an ideal world they work. When you hear gurus talking about it, it sounds logical and brilliant even. But talk to folks who actually buy and sell, and it isn’t something that is reality. Lists for buyers are retarded. I think the only reason to have a buyers list is if you are lacking confidence and having some sort of list will make you feel important. Look, I’m somewhat kidding about that. I see merit in asking investors what they’re looking for and so on. But you know what? I had an interesting conversation with a fellow investor recently. This guy has over 30 years experience and we’ve worked together before. What we agreed on is that a very high percentage of people who call themselves cash investors are really wannabes who don’t know what the hell they’re doing. Pure phonies. So its no wonder even seasoned guys get frustrated with these lists. It’s because they haven’t figured out that these ‘cash buyers’ are really lying out of their arses! I hate to be the merchant of truth, but buyers lists are a bunch of crap!!
Phantom ad - Something that doesn’t really exist per se. He just put an ad out that he had a certain size home for sale at a certain price just to test the waters and see who was interested in buying that type of property…
