 Ringless Voicemail will Boost Your Driving for Dollars

Driving for dollars is regarded by both new and experienced investors as the best lead list. Why? Because driving for dollars produces a unique list that only you will have. Houses on your driving for dollars list will only receive mail from you, so you’re more likely to get a call back and you won’t have to bid against other investors. Most people are just too lazy to actually drive for dollars though, so if you want a way to beat 99% of your competition, you should drive for dollars!

You can’t deny that there has been some murmuring about bubbles and crashes in the real estate market over the past couple of years.

You’re in the business of making money, not losing it. What you might not realize is that the outdated software you’re using to find, track, and close REI deals could actually be costing you. Hey, we can hear your chorus of responses right now: “But Excel isn’t outdated, everybody uses it.” “But all the software I use is free.” “But my system works for me.” But, but, but … But you’re probably not making as much money as you would be if you were using better software.

Between the massive growth in discount brokerages willing to play matchmaker for skinny commissions (I’m looking at you, Redfin ... Purplebricks ...), and now iBuyers like Opendoor and Offerpad, who are willing to skip the middleman altogether, it’s a brave new world out there.

Real estate investing is largely about gathering intelligence—finding properties to purchase, knowing the details of those properties to aid you in negotiations, and using all that information to close the deal.

The real estate investing market these days is hot, hot, hot! That’s the good news, and you probably already knew it. What you might not know is that it is also becoming tight, tight, tight! The return on investment is the lowest it has been since 2014, which has prompted the big boys to step up their game and go for the volume play. Unlike Bungalo, you probably don’t have $225 million to invest, so you’ll have to be smarter, faster, and better at real estate marketing if you want a full-time REI career—or to take that ridiculously swanky vacation.
