Suggestions on how to start out in the wholesaling real estate business

Hi All,

I am new to investing and I am focusing on the wholesaling aspect of real estate, for now, and have sent out many many mailings and flyers. I am not getting any calls. I’m in the Central Florida area and I know there are properties out there. Are there any suggestions on how to improve on this dreary result?

Please don’t be shy with your responses…HELP!

I have done a lot of mailers also. I get more calls on hand written letters and make the letter a little personal.
As far as flyers I hired a couple young guys that want to be bird dogs for me and I have them to pass out and post flyers all over town once a month. If I close a deal from the flyers they put out I give them $50-$100.00. They love it!!! That’s how I’m building my empire. Try it! You must find what works for you in your area.

Thanks Wilmington, I will try the handwritten approach. I have been typing up the letters to the homeowners. As for the flyers, there are quite a few kids in my neighborhood… I’ll find out from a few of them if they would like to make some extra bucks and hand out those flyers. What do you think of me putting the flyes in business establishments and putting them under the wiper blades of parked cars at the grocery store.

Check to see if you need permission from store owners/shopping owners to put flyers on cars at/near grocery store.

Some areas require you get permission.

Thanks Bettysue, I will start to pursue this avenue as well.
