Finding off market deals In this day and age

[Michael Nijhawan]

Hello bigger pockets community, as a new real estate part-time agent, I was wondering what are the best ways and insights to find off market deals in this day and age? What I mean by in this day and age is, during the crazy pandemic and with a crazy hot real estate market. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Buy a list...develop that niche....market like crazy to them.

I get lots of letters....but normally just one...I have lots of properties so when it is generic or cryptic I don't respond.  Better to say I want to buy your house in X city or X neighborhood so I know what interests you.

So your niches might be divorces...so you're contacting the occupants and the attorneys....call behind or in front of or both, ever post card and letter you send out.  Probates, utility disconnections, Trashout guys, Storage unit guys, code enforcement violations, delinquent taxes, etc.
