Marketing to Buyers and Sellers

Does it work to have a Real Estate Agent to find
expired listings, price reductions, etc. if I'm
locating properties and passing them on to investors
for a "finders fee." If it does what percentage
would the Agent get when a property that he sent
me closes.

Also, I know the "referral fee" is negotiable but
can you tell me what the average referral fee is
so I know where to start.

Thanks so much,
Susan

I just started with the Success Academy and have a dear friend that is upside down on their mortgage (not sure how much yet) and also has a bankruptcy and needs to get out of his home... Any ideas on how I can help him? I was thinking of trying to market a Lease Option on his property and finding anoth lease option for him until he can repair his credit but that all depends on how upside down he really is...

I placed a ghost ad (UGLY HOUSE!!

So, I want to do some bird-doggong....

Whats the best way to go about that?

I forgot the free website dean gave us access to, where we can list our property and attract motivated sellers.

thanks again DG family

Hi All Fellow DG Members

Hope everyone is doing Great!

I've contacted many FSBO & FRBO on craigslist and Forsalebyowner.com looking for lease option deals, but no one seems interested in doing lease option deals.

I have a few questions.

What's the best way to approach sellers to do a lease option deal?

What would you say to them so they would consider a lease option deal?

Thanks!

Happy Investing!

I just got some good information on a site that you can list your properties for free and they also list lenders there too. It is fairly new but the members there are increasing fast. Basic membership with them is free as well but if you need the advance membership you can upgrade as well. The address is www.realestateandfunding.com go try and it out and see what you think about it.

Finding Leads isnt easy these days. Buyers are hard to come by, but there are places where you can find good leads! Craigslist gives you nothing but spam these days. So where do you turn?

**** . This is one of the best , FREE, quality real estate lead generators on the internet. Thousands of real leads who are looking to do business! You can find real estate investors, investment companies, first time home buyers , business buyers and more...

I'm completely new, but one strategy I find intriguing is bird-dogging. Just have a few questions...

What types of contracts are involved?

Is there an average set rate for bird-dogging?

How do you ensure payment?

Any information would be extremely helpful thank you.

Hi..

We are new to real estate and but have been aggressively looking for deals the past couple of months. We are planning to utilize assignment of contracts first and have built up an investor list and are looking for sellers. We will be making 2 offers this week on houses we saw this past weekend.

We remember reading somewhere that Matt Larson would send out a large number of offers each week (cannot remember the amount, but somewhere around 20). Sooner or later, one of those offers would be accepted and because of the amount being sent out, the likelihood of acceptance increased
