Yellow & Black Signs

Put those bandit signs out with this message.
WE BUY HOUSES
Fast! For Cash!
222-222-2222

Place them in high traffic areas like Walmart, McDonald, major shopping malls, etc.
That should get your phone ringing with sellers. Have you offered on any properties in the MLS, that fit your cash buyers' criteria?
Hope this helps.

it should have the details, but RENinja is right, you just put out the signs, and handle the calls as they come in.

I want to Thank You for your prompt answer, I must have written it wrong. What I was trying to say is I'm looking to build my Buyers List right now and I can't see saying you have a property to Sell on a Bandit Sign when you don't just to have potential Investors call you. If I can build a Buyers List I figure the rest will all fall into place. You have a Great Talent for this business and I only wish You Well in your future endevors. I have read allot of you input in R.E. FORUMS. Thanks Again RENinja. Bye for now "The Old Man" Johnny

Make sure you use a Google Voice # or one that can't be trace back to you in case of the sign police.

Thanks for that, I didn't realize my comments were being seen that much
Okay, I misunderstood you, I thought you were looking for sellers. Some people use Ghost ads with great success, but personally, I am afraid to use them because I live in a town of 30,000 and I wouldn't want to get a reputation as someone who is just messing around. I'm afraid they will call and press me about the property and I don't want to lie to them. Thats just how I feel about it.
Here is what I thought of doing(others have posted this idea as well).
Post ads on craigslist.
INVESTORS WANTED!
I have a knack and a unique marketing strategy for finding deals in (town) better than anyone else! When I find a deal that meets your criteria, I'd like the opportunity to send you the info on the property, through email, text, or a phone call. Please send me your criteria through email and I will begin searching for you immediately. If you would like to speak with me or set up a time to meet in person to discuss your investing goals, you can reach me at (phone), (email).

Advertise to them directly.
You can also go to real estate investing clubs in your area and ask members if any of them are looking to build their portfolio. Leave flyers anywhere you are allowed(again, high traffic areas) with a dual message. One message targeting sellers, one message targeting cash buyers, the message in my previous post and the above message.
Hope this helps. By the way, I'm into motorcycles and muscle cars too! Mustangs and Buells! Plenty of other favorites, but the list is too big to write out, lol.

Hello RENinja. I like the wording of your proposed Craigslist ad. If you or someone you know has tried this particular ad, how has it worked?

Also, is anyone out there doing any print ads - you know, good old Classifieds in the daily paper. And if "yes" to the Classifieds, what heading are you running them under.

I have not used the ad myself, but I intend to soon. Currently I am trying to see an RE attorney, to determine how my contracts need to be written up. I can look up someone who I think used a similar ad and I can PM you if I find anything.

The only ad I have read of people using in classifieds is a simple WE BUY HOUSES! CASH! Call (). Most people don't use them because they are expensive to run week after week. I think it would be under real estate services, not sure I have never looked. There are other forms of advertising that are cheaper and have more exposure. Instead of that, I would suggest leaving flyers in high traffic areas whenever you are allowed with a more in detail message of WE BUY AND SELL HOUSES, CASH, phone, email.
Hope that helps.
