I'm building my buyer list for Florida tax deed deals and found that sending generic "I have deals" emails gets ignored. What's working better is putting together actual deal packets with the property address, ARV, rehab costs, and title status - buyers can see exactly what they're getting instead of guessing. I'm only a few deals in but the ones who actually close are the ones who got specific numbers upfront.

Kerry’s route can work to start, but I wouldn’t assume a large wholesaler is an end buyer. Some buy regularly; others primarily assign contracts or redistribute deals from other wholesalers.
Start with recent sales records and identify the LLCs repeatedly purchasing the property type and neighborhoods you intend to target. Trace those entities to the actual decision-makers, then ask for a specific buy box: ZIP codes, price range, rehab tolerance, intended exit, minimum margin, occupied-property policy and closing timeline.
I’d also verify how they perform before treating them as a dependable buyer. Have they recently closed with the title company? Can they provide current proof of funds? Will they place meaningful earnest money? Do they inspect promptly? Do they retrade after committing?
Keep notes on every deal you send: whether they responded, inspected, offered, deposited earnest money and closed on the agreed terms. A buyer list becomes valuable when it records actual behavior. A spreadsheet containing hundreds of people who once said “send me deals” isn’t much of a buyer list.

I would start with five real conversations instead of a huge email list. Ask what each buyer actually bought recently, what they passed on and why. A specific buy box gives you something useful to work with when a deal shows up. The best acquisition company on paper may still be a poor fit for your market.
