How to work eviction real estate leads
Eviction real estate leads come from court filings, so they show a clear problem. However, many landlords are not ready to sell until the case drags on.
First, contact the owner soon after the filing with a short, helpful message. For example, explain that you can buy the property with the tenant in place. Also, follow up on a steady schedule, because many landlords decide after a second filing. In addition, check for other signs of stress, such as code violations or late taxes. As a result, you focus on the most motivated owners.
