In many cases, the process of finding real estate investment leads which turn into deals is like panning for gold, the wider the filter you use the more golden deals you can expect to catch.

Experienced real estate investors know that the process of turning prospects into leads, and those leads into deals is a sales funnel that gets increasingly narrow as contacts pass through the sales process. Because the bottom of the sales funnel is so narrow, it's best to make the top as wide as possible. Translation: It takes a lot of prospects to get a few deals.

Background
Real-estate investors and wholesalers, here is the harsh reality - there are roughly 5 to 7 million real estate investors out there.. So in this crowded market, there is a limited inventory of homeowners who are distressed or motivated to sell their home.

Seller Scores What is a seller score? Seller scores indicate the property owner's likelihood to sell their home in the next 6 to 12 months. Using the most recent Big Data & Predictive analytics algorithms, we analyze and track almost 25 individual, family and property related data points which impact the home selling decision and use this to assign a seller score from 1 - 100. Higher scores mean a higher probability to sell.
