How to find out of state buyers?

TX · Member since 2009 · 122 posts · 11 votes

I am in Texas, which many seem to include as one of the hottest areas right now for real estate investments. I'm thinking of attracting some out of state (cash) buyers for my wholesale deals. I have a website I've setup that will handle a buyers list, but right now, I need to find marketing ideas to find and attract these buyers.

What part of TX are you in?

Why not look up the real estate investment clubs in CA and other states who are actively seeking to buy in more stable markets like TX. I have sold many properties to investors in CA.

You might be able to advertise your properties through those associations and on their website.

    Great Idea Cary, could you tell us exactly how that would work? I know in Georgia the real estate investment clubs require you to be a member in order to advertise properties for sale and that could get expensive quick. Im not sure how it works in other markets.

    Ty our investors we dealt with came by word of mouth and our network. This idea just hit me when the question was posed but where there is a will there is a way. I would recommend calling the orginizations first and take it from there or send them an email from their websites. Google "real estate associations " and see what comes up for you.

    Advertise one of your TX deals via non-local classifieds (online and/or print), investor club forums, bus ads, etc.

    You could also take a similar approach that many tech companies use for advertising their products/services during conventions in LV (like CES): hire some attractive, young co-eds to pass out some business cards, postcards, and/or other promotional materials for you. Sure it's low tech, and sure it works.

    You can use adwords to have google search send traffic to your site.

    Google has many tutorials on the subject.
