I’ve noticed a lot of people in the real estate investing space hesitating when it comes to using texting for lead generation. The concerns typically revolve around the legalities and the fear of being labeled as spam. And while it’s true that there are rules to follow (like the TCPA), the truth is, when done right, texting can be an incredibly powerful tool for building meaningful connections with sellers, especially in today’s fast-paced world.
Texting allows you to reach people where they are—on their phones—providing a quick and convenient way to engage. When you combine it with proper opt-in procedures and a strategic approach, texting can open the door to potential deals that might have otherwise slipped through the cracks.
I’ve seen firsthand how it can transform the way investors connect with distressed property owners and land sellers, giving them a competitive edge. The key is focusing on value and building relationships, rather than just pushing for a sale right away.
I agree! Texting, when done right and legally, can be a great way for real estate investors to connect with sellers quickly. Focusing on building relationships and providing value is key to turning it into a competitive advantage.
