Probably the best real estate deals you’ll ever find aren’t for sale. Yep, you read that right. They aren’t for sale. This is because the owner hasn’t thought about selling their property until you make them an offer!
Have you ever had a car, boat, house, business, or anything else that you have owned but if someone came along and gave you a full-price offer you would have taken it immediately? This happens all the time. How do agents and brokers get listings? By contacting sellers directly, of course! Now, if you go to sellers and let them know right off the bat that you aren’t looking for a listing but are in fact the “principal”, they will be much kinder and treat you with a whole different sort of respect than they will a realtor.
Another huge plus to this is the fact that you will not have to deal with a bidding process or other types of competition. A smart seller knows if they are getting a good offer or not and are more than happy to get around paying any realtor commissions.
So, how do you go about doing this? Probably the best method is to cultivate relationships with property management companies and search county records to find out how to contact the owners directly. Another method is to send out formal letters to owners telling them that you’d like to make them a full-price offer for their property. Owners who have been around and understand the business will know a good offer from a bad one and will be able to act quickly once they understand the mechanics of the deal.
