I got on here today to ask the same question, but I ran across this post first. I’ve been having good success with Facebook ads in my real estate sales business. I have been running lead ads and taking the leads to a search results page on my website, and capturing their contact info in my CRM. I was wondering a similar approach would work for finding motivated sellers? I’m getting my sales leads for less than $3 per lead, but I can’t imagine motivated seller leads would be that cheap. What I’m really envisioning is running an add for someone that wants to sell. Then go to the appointment as an investor to purchase, but if the seller is unwilling or unable to sell at such a discount, then go into a listing presentation and show how I could get them more money in their pockets.

Where in LA are you moving to?

Hey Branden, I'm an agent/investor in Denham Springs and there are groups that meet in Baton Rouge and New Orleans.  Google "ring baton rouge" and it will be at the top of the list.  And google "noreia new orleans" and you'll get that one.

Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought I heard the guys say that the forms were included in a pro membership?  Is my mind playing tricks on me?

If rent is due on the 1st of the months and this is what the lease says:  

Is it late after the 5th or after the 6th?

To me... 5 days after the due date of the 1st is the 6th.  

Hey @Mike Hay, I'm an Operator/Realtor/Investor from Denham Springs.  Welcome to BP.  You'll find a ton of info on the site and podcasts.  Congrats on the triplets... I've got two little girls that are a year apart and I could imagine that triplets are a handful.  

Reach out anytime if you need anything.

Hey @Brian Douglas.  Finding this site was one of the best thing that's ever happened to my investment career.  I'm also a Realtor and investor, but the opposite direction of @Braden Smith.  I'm in Denham Springs.  Read up and check out the podcasts... there are a ton of them, and still new ones coming out all the time.

I just inherited a 1800 sq ft 2 bedroom 2 bath pier & beam house in a small town in Louisiana with a population of approximately 300 people.  I want to start investing in single family rentals but I am not sure if this is the town to do it in?  The house is in good shape and would need minimal repairs if I tried to rent it.  I am also toying with the idea of selling it.  How would I find the appropriate rent price for this house considering the minimal population and industry in this town and surrounding area?  I am located in Texas and would be dependent on a management company for my first rental.  All thoughts and ideas are welcome.  

Hi John. Where in Louisiana are you? I have access to the MLS, so if you're in my area I wouldn't mind helping you figure out what rental prices and sales prices are. I'm property searching everyday, so it wouldn't be any trouble to get some info for you to help you make your decision. Message me if you decide you need help.

Hey @Brett Arceneaux!  I'm also a Realtor and investor from Denham Springs.  I love talking real estate, so feel free to hit me up anytime.  Welcome to the family!

@Katie Andrews I'm in Denham Springs just outside of Baton Rouge. I'm in the MLS everyday and I see plenty of properties that would make good rentals. Mobile homes would probably cash flow really well, but don't expect any appreciation.

I got my license for my own investment properties so I’m constantly looking.
