Craigslist Marketing Buyer Leads Strategy #1

Put On Your Buyer Brain

Identify Your Buyer Here are 3 simple but powerful tips to help get in the brain of your cash buyers

with your Craigslist ads.

● Your out-of-state investing buyers want to know the cash flow numbers● Your flipping buyers want an assessment of how much work is required to

flip the property● Your rent-to-own tenant-buyers want to know that you’ll work with them

on their unique financing situation

Figure out why your buyers are looking in the first place… then build that information into your ads.

Create a title that speaks to your buyer’s key reason for buying.

“Turnkey property cash flowing $500/month”

“Easy-to-fix property 50% below market, requires only $10K for a fast flip”

“Bad credit? No problem with this beautiful rent-to-own home”

Craigslist Buyer Leads Strategy #3Attach the Best Pictures for Your Prospects Goal

Pictures are a challenging part of the real estate investor’s Craigslist marketing strategy. The burning question is: Do pictures help?

Here’s our assessment:

● If your buyer is a homeowner/retail buyer (that is: if they will be living in the property themselves) then pictures will help.

● If your buyer is an investor (i.e. a flipper or they want to own rental property) then pictures probably won’t help as much as the numbers. (They might help but not to the same degree as someone who will live in the property).

Which Pictures Stand Out and Which Ones Don’t?

● Retail Buyers want to see very pretty and polished pictures

● Turnkey Investors want to see pictures that show the house is nice, is well kept

● Cash Buyers / Flippers often want to see a house that is in rough shape

The Quality of the Picture Should Vary Based on the Type of Buyer You’re Looking For

Price your property right… Sometimes playing the “$1” pricing game or showing no price at all can backfire and prevent your property from showing up to the right buyers. Price your property right.

Craigslist Buyer Leads Strategy #4Deploy a Pricing Strategy That Makes Sense

Higher ROI Marketing For Real Estate Investors www.oncarrot.com

4 Possible Price Options

People can sort with high prices first or low prices first, potential buyers will rarely search for high prices first (because serious buyers usually want to pay less).

● If they search by price at all, your no-price listing may not show up at all● If a price is too low ($1.00) you might show up at the top of the list when sorted

by low price first ● The best rule of thumb is to always price the property for your best price

upfront

Studies have shown that starting high then lowering over time actually leads to a

13% decrease in the sales price of the house.
