Tips for Lining Up More Inventory in a Hot Market
It’s no secret that as the market is heating up, so is the competition over homes in many markets. So avoid the mayhem, avoid the stress and overpaying by leapfrogging the competition to find high volumes of deals.
Look to:
- Non-performing mortgage notes
- Construction REOs
- Tap into mounting shadow inventory with bank contacts
- Build an extensive referral partner network for tapping into off market properties
Grow your referral network quickly by using social media and organizing your own networking events and go beyond Realtors and loan officers to bank managers, attorneys, insurance agents, financial planners and counselors.

So how to you lock them in fast and in large numbers?
- Tap into the social networks of online influencers
- Collaborate on marketing efforts with local business owners
- Market to the targeted databases of subscribers magazines and blogs control
- Reach out to foreign affiliates through chambers of commerce and Realtor groups
- Launch a robust Google Adwords campaign for all the traffic and leads you can handle on demand
Tips for Finding More Funding
Having all the buyers and sellers in the world is great but even the most affluent investors need to stay liquid and will want to use leverage to ensure that they can capitalize on all of the opportunities available.

Instead look for funding via:
- Commercial mortgage lenders for bridge and blanket loans
- Transactional funding through firms like Best Transaction Funding
- Business loans
- Private lenders through brokers or networking
The Key to Success…
Take the time to stop and systemize and automate everything now. Take a week off if you need to, or hire an assistant to do it. You simply can’t afford hiccups to derail your momentum later, or a lack of capacity to hold you back. Not having deals is one thing, but worse is having the above 3 factors lined up, and not being able to handle the deal flow.
