Advice on finding buyers

1. Just got my first property under contract in Toledo near the University area. I’m working on building my buyers list — curious what strategies have worked best for you all in finding reliable buyers who actually close?

Congrats on locking up your first deal!

When it comes to finding buyers who actually close, a few things have worked well for me, joining local Facebook investor groups (great for networking and deal feedback), calling agents and property managers who work with investors, and reaching out to title companies, especially ones that handle assignments. They usually know who’s active and closing.

Also, cold calling recent cash transactions near your property can be gold. Those buyers already proved they’ll close if the numbers make sense.

And yeah, buyers need room to make money. If the rehab numbers are off or you’re the only one eating, it’s gonna be a tough sell. Keep it honest, leave some margin, and you’ll build a solid list over time.
