Three Good Ways To Find Pretty House Deals, Part 3 of 3
Posted on May 6, 2013 byMethod Number Three: Call Ads
I know this doesn’t sound appealing but if you’ll do it my way, you’ll probably grow to love it. You see, I don’t want you to call ads, I want you to get someone else to do it for you. Someone who will do it every night because it’s their job and you’re paying them. Here’s how it works. It’s so simple.
Get the Property Information Sheet out of my course or one of my Boot Camp manuals and have someone call all of the Sunday FSBO ads every Monday night between 6-9 p.m. Have them fill out the basic information you need to determine if you want to call the seller back.
Frankly all I need is the asking price, the estimated value, and the loan balance, condition of the property, name, and phone number, address and whether or not it’s listed with a Realtor. With this information, I can prescreen the prospect sheet in 5 seconds and make my decision to follow up or not. I can’t get into prescreening here so if you don’t know how to do this, I’d suggest you fix that before getting real serious about generating leads on houses when you can’t spot a deal when it appears.
If you pay this person $2 per script, they’ll make $10-$20 per hour and you can eliminate talking to a bunch of dead-end leads that don’t want or need to sell.
Your job is to take the big pile they create and reduce it to a little pile of prospects that appear motivated and willing to give you equity. That’s it! You can make a few calls a week to good prospects that have been sifted and sorted before you talk to them. This method alone could easily make you half million a year! It’s really that simple if you can recognize a deal and follow up to get it done.
If you’ve paid someone $50 for 25 scripts, and you’ve bought one house that made you $20,000, wouldn’t it be worth the $50? Yes, you say! Then get to work buckwheat! By the way, don’t even think of doing all that prescreening yourself. You’ll last about an hour. Let someone else do it. No exceptions!
Well there you have it! There’s enough info to make you rich! The question is – are you going to do anything with it?
Get out there and do it… TODAY!
