5 Tips for Growing Your Leads List

NO. 4 Financial-Related Property Data

Data is available to identify proper - ties where the owners are tax delin - quent or near foreclosure. Often, these owners are anxious to sell and would be happy to have an offer made on their property. NO. 5 Attorneys Lawyers, particularly Probate Attorneys, have clients needing to sell homes quickly. You may be able to develop relationships with attor - neys so that when a client needs to sell a property, the attorneys refer them to you for assistance. In each of these cases, you can either spend time searching for and collecting leads on your own, or you can go to a reputable company to purchase these leads. We recom - mend purchasing the leads so that you can spend your time fielding calls and building relationships with your potential customers. In addition, once you have the leads, you will want to develop a continuous and multi-faceted mar - keting approach to reach out to your leads. This can seem overwhelming and like a lot of work for both those early in their careers and for those who are more experienced and have larger leads lists. However, there are companies designed specifically to assist you with growing and market- ing to your leads. • Go to www.USProbateLeads.com to learn more about growing your business.

These include instances of aged homes with aged owners, code-violations, vacant lots, and vacant properties.
