Why You Cannot Find A R2SA Deal📑

Reading Time : 4 min

“Just pick up the phone and start calling agents. Tell them you are doing a company let and eureka ! you’ve bagged yourself a rent-to-rent” 😊

Absolute porkies. I remember hearing that nonsense when I went to one of the property courses I attended in the early days.

When I quit my job to start property, I spent 3 months in the trenches looking in all directions for a rent to rent but not a single person took me serious. No income coming in, but a whole load of bills and a mediocre savings pot I was relying on while living at my girlfriend’s.

Allow me to pull the curtain on the harsh reality:

Traditional methods of finding R2SA deals are as outdated as a flip phone!

Rightmove, OpenRent, Gumtree, Zoopla, and our beloved estate agents, they're all great, but they're not cutting it for you’re looking for a deal.

Enter the era of online marketing tools. Google Keyword ads, SEO, Facebook ads. They sound like buzzwords, I know, but they’re actually your ticket to a steady flow of direct-to-landlord opportunities. Not just that, these magical tools offer you an escape from the dreadful agent references and give you a shot at building something expansive and scalable.

🔫 Digital Artillery for Sourcing Deals

Here are the weapons you need in your arsenal to retrieve only the best deals that are not only direct to landlord, but in most cases, off the market

1. Master SEO (Search Engine Optimisation): Think of it as a magnet for landlords. With the right keywords, your website can be the first thing landlords see when they search for property services.

   They will be coming to you instead of you approaching them.

2. Google Ads: Pay Google to have your website on top of search results. More visibility means more landlords coming your way.

3. Facebook ads: The unsung hero of deal sourcing. Set up lead ads and watch landlord inquiries trickle directly to your phone.

Why stick to the well-trodden path when you can pave your own? Sure, it's good to work with agents. Heck, I still sell deals through agents, but that's only because they recognize my name now, after a year of creating ripples in the market.

The key takeaway here? Leave no stone unturned. Your chances of success multiply with each source you explore. And trust me, these online tools are a sleeping giant that few have dared to wake up. But as a reader of this newsletter, you're in luck. I'm here to guide you, no secrets held back.
