Best way to find buyers?

[Fallon Gilbert]

Hi everyone!

I'm not sure if this is the place I would post this but I'm doing some creative deals and I'm curious if anyone has a suggestion to build a buyers list for contract for deed/executory agreements or other seller-finance type deals? I've debated if I should reach out to lenders in the areas and offer referral fees but is that allowed? I don't know how the lending process works if someone doesn't get approved or whatever the case may be. 

I guess what's holding me back from full on jumping in is worrying about getting someone to purchase the properties from me and then having them sit. I'm sure this is a common fear but any and all suggestions would be appreciated!
