Joe McCall. How are you doing? Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast, I have just a quick video for you. I’m going to jump into it right quick about how to find cash buyers. My favorite ways to find cash buyers. Bottom line the seller is not your customer. The buyers are your customer. Whoever has the most money is who you want to give most of your attention to. It’s always really-really critically important to build your buyers list, okay? If you have a lot of buyers, if you have good solid buyers, if you have a good relationship with your buyers, you're going to do really-really well in this business.

You always need to be marketing for buyers; you always need to be building the relationship with buyers, and whoever has the best buyers wins. That’s just the way this beast goes. It’s important to have good solid buyers. And I’m just going to walk through with you real briefly here in this video. My favorite ways to find cash buyers, all right? It’s really simple, and I think this is going to help you a lot. Let’s jump right in here. First thing I’d like to do is advertise the property online. I mean, duh.

In fact put as many signs as you can in the yard.
