There is no rei club anywhere close to me in southern idaho. How are some other ways to get a database of investors to sell to?
You can use Realquest Pro and run a custom search for all absentee owners who have purchased homes in the last 3 to 6 months in your area, usually these are other investors.
Post on craigslist. Either advertise a deal you have under contract, or ask for investors who are interested in being on your list.
Have you tried facebook or meetup.com. They have REI clubs in facebook and meetup.com to network with investors, landlords, rahabber and wholesalers
Look in public records recent sales with cash buyer’s or on mls look for sales of distress properties and then look in public records the name of the buyers.
Linkedin, twitter and facebook are good places to connect with investors to add to your buyers list.
Look in your local newspaper for “we buy houses” ads in the real estate section
Another source of cash buyers is the sheriif sale. Introduce yourself to the people that are bidding.
Another way to build your buyers list is to sign up for a article website. Write an article with a link back to a squeeze page. This can be done in the about author box. On your squeeze page, you want to have an eye catching title, perhaps a video of you talking about how you have deeply discounted properties for sale and to get access to this hot source of bargain properties no one else knows about sign up today. Then you can also add a list of nationwide and local hard money lenders or any other thing of value for free. Your website does not have to have a video. It can have words. When you use an optin form, if possible use one that has a red arrow pointing to the optin. For some reason, people have had a high number of success with the optin’s that have red arrows.
How to get a squeeze page?
Ezleadcapture is a place that sells lead capture pages (squeeze pages). You will have to pay a monthly subscription to use their services. You can use your own domain name with them. I use to use them and has success building my list.
Or you can use a blog, facebook or website and paste lead capture script from a service such as aweber or constant contact.
