Getting Sellers to Call You!

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

While many people in the real estate investing business spend a great deal of their time chasing after leads to find motivated sellers and great properties that can be turned over for a quick profit, you should not underestimate the time that can be saved by getting at least some of those sellers to contact you. By getting sellers to contact you instead of you always contacting them, you can increase the number of potential leads that you have access to, which saves you time and money giving you the edge in real estate investing!

Advertisements are one of the most basic ways in which you can get people to call you when they are selling their properties. There are a wide range of ads that you can buy for relatively low costs: classified ads in the newspaper, large newspaper display ads, flyers to distribute in areas where you have houses for sale. You can also put up signs in the neighborhoods where you are buying and selling – these have the advantage of being both relatively cheap and not going away too quickly (i.e. they are a more permanent solution).

The world wide web is another option for getting sellers to call you. If you have the ability to put up a basic web site and draw some searches for your area this can be an effective sales tool. Save time with real estate investing by attracting the attention of people who are actively searching for real estate investing deals in the area that you serve.

Word of mouth is one of the classic ways to get people to call you when they are interested in buying or selling in real estate investing. It helps to be able to deliver a thirty second speech that introduces you, your real estate investing business, and invites people to tell their friends about you in they are interested in buying or selling real estate. You should carry cards with you to hand out at the end of this introduction so that you always make the best use of your time and make new connections.

Finally, direct mailing with postcards are another good way to inform people about your real estate investing opportunities! By using one, some or all of these various methods for advertising your services, you can get the market for real estate investing to contact you and save valuable research time!

 

Happy Investing,
