Episode 123: How to Build a Deal-Finding Network

Shownotes: I find motivated sellers by networking with people who know where the opportunities are. Real estate meetings, LinkedIn, Facebook, agents, and wholesalers can all lead you to off-market properties. I reach out to agents and ask, “Do you have anything off-market?” or “Do you have anything an investor might want to look at?” You never know why a property hasn't been listed—it could be distressed, have problems, or simply be a seller who doesn't want to go on the market. The key is to build relationships and look beyond the MLS. Sometimes the best deals are the ones that aren't listed.
