Wholesaling Off Market

[Donnell Evans]

I see a lot of people advertising that they have off market deals. Is this attractive to a buyer for any particular reason? I thought one of the best ways to advertise your deals was to post it for sale.  What am I missing?

Off market usually suggests it's a deal not on the MLS, or listed by a realtor (no commissions to pay). For the buyer, its attractiveness is assuming less eyeballs are seeing the deal - compared to if it were an MLS listing where its exposed to all who have access - possibly resulting in a more competitive, higher offer to get accepted - equals thinner deal.

If you're a wholesaler with an off market deal - yes, market to your buyers list.
