Here at RealRenta, we have combined our favourite hacks used by agents we know, that will help you find the best off-market deals in the area you are targeting:
- Direct Marketing
More and more savvy investors are sending out direct mail or advertising in local newspapers, stating that they are looking for properties to “fix and flip”.
- Network with Property and Estate Lawyers
Networking with property and estate lawyers can clue you into properties that may be available in the near future. Estates are a great source for investors, as there are usually creditors or other issues that need to be resolved quickly.
- Join local business networking groups
Meet as many new people as possible when networking and talk about your investment work, so that you are top of mind when potential off-market properties come up.
- Keep an eye on public records
Watch the local newspaper and government websites to keep an eye out for foreclosure opportunities
- Browse local auctions and keep an eye out for properties that are passed in
Keep an eye on Auction websites and do your research with regards to the neighborhood and the property prices in the area.
- Network with wholesalers
This is a great way to find investment deals but keep in mind that they are still middlemen and you won’t be getting the same deal you’d get if you went directly to the source.
