Real Estate Investing Blog

When you’re looking to buy multiple properties in order to grow your real estate investment business, it’s essential to make an effort to get ahead of the curve. In order to do that, you’re going to need to know the best means of getting motivated sellers to call you, and you’re going to have to know how to act quickly.

In order to act quickly, you’ll find that the best plan has little to do with signing up to receive lists of pre-foreclosure properties (after all, when you receive those lists, so do many of your competitors). Acting quickly - and getting ahead of the curve in the process - also has little to do with sending letters when you think you’ve found the right address for someone who’s in the pre-foreclosure period.

Focus your research on notices of default as they are posted in the newspaper. Spend time at the local courthouse to see when notices of default are filed. If you can call rather than sending a letter, do so; if you have a way of meeting with them face to face, you’ll be in a better position to form a connection and build a relationship.

When you want to get ahead of the curve in your real estate investment business - and you want to be able to take advantage of the increased income potential of buying multiple properties - the best thing that you can do is to determine the best way to act quickly.
