Late to the show here- I found this by searching “fake wholesale Craigslist” to see if that was a strategy.  In the Seattle area, I have been combing over CL and have been finding a fair amount of people putting up ads to build their buyers list.  There must be something out there giving this ad a good idea...

@Kevin Scott I messaged you.  We are wrapping up a flip.  Not sure if marketing it or renting it at this point. But we would like to get into multi family down there. We live in Tacoma and it is a drive but growing.

@Brock Lile No.  I use an app called Home Snap. It is a GPS app so I get the address of the house just by taking a picture of it.  The direction of my phone indicates the house number. All those are saved so I can remember which ones were the best to target.  From that app I can also pull Zillow comp sales and if I remember the county info. I’m fairly small scale but when I drive for an hour or 2, I just  up and take a quick picture and all the info is saved. I had a police officer pull up next to me in a neighbor in Tacoma and ask why I was taking pictures.  I told him I am looking to rehab homes in the area.  He was impressed and drove me to an area that he thought would be good for business that I didn’t even plan on going too!

I’m flipping in Centralia. Haven’t ran into anything weird.  If I do any marketing, it’s strictly targeted on a “driving for dollars” basis where I take a picture of some ones house, print that picture and ask if they are would consider selling.  It is pretty cheap and good response rate. Especially with a recent photo To personalize it.
