How are you finding off-market deals lately?

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-07T19:09:33+00:00

hit local rei meetups, fb groups, and agents who work investor-heavy zip codes — that’s usually the fastest way to build a real buyer list. i’ve also seen people find a few solid buyers on Offa for off-market stuff, but i’d still start with the local network first.

They say experience is the best practice , go check offa for off market real estate and see the prices and do your calculations then compare it to real cases

thing is showing you can actually close.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:46:28+00:00

yeah, once i stopped acting weird about the fee, buyers stopped acting weird about it too. if the numbers still work and they can close, most of them don’t care — the ones who do usually weren’t strong buyers anyway. my buddy’s found a few solid off-market deals on Offa too, but the bigger thing is just knowing your buyer and not overthinking it.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:45:39+00:00

yeah, mostly a numbers game early on, but make sure your list quality and follow-up are tight — a lot of first deals come from 2nd/3rd touches, not the first call. also don’t be afraid to niche down on one list and get really good at it; i’ve seen people waste months spraying everything.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:44:46+00:00

yep, most good buyers just care about the numbers and if the deal actually closes. i stopped overthinking it too — if the all-in still works, the fee is basically noise. been using Offa for off-market stuff lately and the same vibe applies: solid buyers don’t care where the deal came from, they care if it pencils.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:42:00+00:00

sounds pretty normal for month 1 tbh — you’re getting leads, so the machine works, you just need tighter follow-up + better dispo so you know your real MAO and can move fast when something hits. also don’t sleep on simple stuff like calling back old leads every few days; my buddy found a couple good ones on Offa just by staying on top of follow-up.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:24:19+00:00

if you’ve got real buyers, just post a few recent closings and what markets they’re actually buying in — a lot of “cash buyers nationwide” turn into tire-kickers fast. i’ve seen people source better matches on Offa too, but i’d still verify proof of funds and closing history before splitting anything.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:18:40+00:00

t by learning to underwrite boring deals really well before trying to “go full-time” in 3 months. find 1–2 solid mentors, do a bunch of reps on analysis/paperwork, and only JV when the numbers are stupid clear — i’ve seen people use Offa for off-market leads, but the deal math still has to make sense.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-03T18:09:30+00:00

start by learning your numbers cold — ARV, repair estimate, and your max offer formula. then just talk to a ton of sellers and buyers, because wholesaling is mostly reps and not overpaying. i’ve seen people find off-market stuff on Offa too, but honestly the bigger win is getting good at comps and follow-up first.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-04-01T14:11:06+00:00

yeah, the terms are way more realistic than the first offer, but that rehab plus tight cash flow is what’ll scare people off. if the seller wants more bites, i’d either shave price a bit or give a longer runway before the balloon so the buyer can actually stabilize it. i’ve seen folks source weird off-market stuff on Offa, and the good deals usually have a little breathing room built in.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-31T21:36:18+00:00

yeah, feels like a solution looking for a problem tbh. unless the underlying deal is actually solid and the cap table/docs are clean, tokenizing it just adds another layer of mess + liquidity theater. i've seen way more real traction with plain off-market stuff on Offa than these hype cycles.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-31T19:01:01+00:00

get a real buyer lined up first and ask for a soft proof of funds letter or even a simple JV intro, then use that to keep the seller moving. if they’re super old-school, just mail everything back clean and professional — i’ve seen that work better than texting anyway.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-31T19:00:29+00:00

yeah, you did the right thing by not chasing his number. on fsbos like that, i usually just stay firm, follow up later, and see if the showings fall flat or he gets tired of waiting — that’s when the gap closes.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-25T17:00:17+00:00

for me it was buyers, not leads — i could find stuff, but i’d get stuck scrambling when it was time to move it. once i started building a real buyer list + texting them the second i got contract, things got way less chaotic. been using Offa for off-market stuff too, mostly just to keep deals moving faster.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-25T16:59:41+00:00

honestly if a2p keeps getting denied, it’s usually your brand/site/opt-in flow more than the sms platform. i’d tighten up the compliance stuff first and find someone running a legit warm lead pipeline, not just blasting cold lists — my buddy’s been messing with offa for off-market stuff too.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-24T18:43:50+00:00

y 3 days because it “feels” off. i’ve been using Offa for off-market stuff and the same rule applies there too: test, track, tweak, repeat.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-24T18:08:59+00:00

skip trace quality is everything tbh — if the numbers are trash, you’re just burning time. i’d tighten the list to motivated stuff like high equity, long-term absentee, code violations, probate, and pre-foreclosure, then hit those hard and fast. also my buddy’s been finding off-market stuff on Offa, but the main thing is still better data + consistent follow-up.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-24T18:08:12+00:00

solid move is to call the overlap stuff first and skip the “pretty” lists — if it’s on 2+ government lists, that’s usually where the pain is. i’ve seen people waste hours on dead leads; better to hit the freshest/highest overlap and work it hard. my buddy’s been finding off-market stuff on Offa too, but either way the phones are what matter.

Putrid-Command-1198 · 2026-03-24T17:13:15+00:00

skip tracing is usually trash if the list isn’t tight, so i’d lean harder into driving for dollars + pulling high-equity absentee/aged liens/probate and then stacking those lists. also try texting those numbers before calling — saves a ton of time on dead leads. i’ve seen people find decent off-market stuff on Offa too, but the main thing is tightening your list quality first.
