moving to the wholesale side.....

I have been doing the rehab and selling to the retail market. but, I think I am ready to go the wholesale route. Now taking the steps to find the motivated sellers. I have about 5 cash buyers in my pocket.

I took a training class research houses in default. I plan and calling and sending out mailers. In addition, I have a RE agent that will pull the expired listings every 2 weeks so I can market to them as well. It is my hope to have a property locked up within the next two weeks.

I am also using social media to get the word out that I buy houses.

I did try the bandit signs but they are illegal here and all but one was taken down within 48 hours. So I am thinking mailers and phone calls are the way to go...what do you think????
