I'm a big fan of good old fashioned facebook! If you have a deal under contract, you can post the property photos and basic deal information (no address) and if it's a great deal you'll have 8-10 people asking for more information depending on the area you're in. You can also go into groups on facebook, and people often leave email addresses on posts. Takes a bit of work, but you can do it from anywhere and don't have to spend any money!

Hey Dave, great question. One of the best ways to build a buyers list is by looking at who’s already buying properties similar to what you plan to wholesale. Pull recent cash transactions in PropStream or Privy, check the LLCs or buyers behind those deals, and give them a call to see what they’re actively looking for. If you want, send me a DM and I can share a few more strategies along with other tools we use!

Hey Dave, lots of investors build their buyers list by tracking activity from local public records especially recent cash purchases, LLC transfers, and repeat buyers in the county.
It helps you identify who’s actually buying right now instead of collecting random emails.
If you ever want to talk through ways to source or organize that data efficiently, happy to share what I’ve seen work well for others.

Yeah honestly the best buyers I've found are at local meetups and FB groups, but here's what trips most people up - they just grab contacts without actually qualifying them. I always ask upfront about their criteria, proof of funds, timeline so I'm not wasting time on tire kickers later. What's been working for you so far?

Great question Dave.
When building a buyer list, one of the biggest things that helped me was focusing on buyers who have actually closed in the last 3–6 months in my target area. You can usually identify those through recent cash transactions in county records.
From there, I’d segment them by:
• Price range
• Property type (SFH, small multifamily, etc.)
• Rehab level
• Closing speed
Also, always vet with proof of funds and ask about their buy box before sending deals. The more organized your list is, the easier it becomes to move properties quickly.
Building it intentionally now will save you a lot of headaches later.

One of the best ways to build a buyers list is by looking at who is already buying in your market.
Pull cash sales from the last 6 to 12 months in the areas you are targeting and see which investors are purchasing multiple properties. Those are usually your most serious buyers. You can find them through public records, investor friendly agents, or tools like DealMachine and PropStream.
You can also connect with local real estate agents who work with investors, attend local investor meetups, and build relationships with other wholesalers who already have buyers.
The strongest buyers lists usually come from real relationships with active investors, not just collecting names online.
