Cold Calling vs. Texting for Motivated Sellers

What's the opinion out there on the success of cold calling vs. texting to find motivated sellers? I'm using a filtered Non owner occupied vacant list in my target areas!

News Flash... They both work. Be careful if you go the texting route, you could get into some very hot water. If you have the time and patience utilize SEO. In SEO you are not reaching out to "motivated" sellers the motivated sellers come to you. If this sounds like something that interests you hit up, Jerryll Noorden... Guys something else.

    With both you are going to need to be consistent. Also depends on your budget and what route you want to take with your marketing. Colding calling and texting are reactive, proactive strategies work much better. Reach out if you have any more questions. Good luck!

    Both work but probably bests to stick to one marketing system until you can predict and forecast your numbers. Then it becomes more of a science vs. hoping and praying you get a deal. 

    I find and close on my own deals I don't wholesale. I only do SMS and network with people such as yourself.

    @Robert Burns keep in mind, if they were motivated, they would be contacting you on your website. Does Amazon call or text you trying to sell you things. My advice is update your methods. Call blocking is getting more common and texting without existing relationship is illegal.
