Vacant or abandoned properties can represent a huge amount of value to real estate portfolios. However, it is a serious struggle to find and contact these absent owners. If they have skipped town, you won't be able to reach them using traditional marketing methods It's time to change your approach! In today's episode of The Creative Real Estate Podcast, Larry Higgins presents his method of High Volume Skip Tracing, which allows you a convenient and accelerated way to find people fast. Like so many other investors that have used direct mail to contact owners, Larry found himself with a huge stack of returned mail from his mail campaigns But instead of throwing it away, he decided to find a way to contact these potential clients. By learning how to become his own skip tracer and discovering how to reach high volumes of people in a cost-effective manner, Larry is able to identify great deals that are flying under every other investor's radar. The system works so well, his business no longer bothers with mail campaigns and relies strictly on skip tracing lists. The bottom line is Larry is getting more deals and more profitable deals in far less time.

  Larry Higgins is not like most real estate investors - he's a young blood in real estate having only spent three years. When he started, he had an in interest in real estate so he can cushion his retirement. He never actually considered going full-time in real estate, though, at least not until he started working in a 9-5 cubicle job. It was at that point where he realized life is simply too short to waste away in front of a computer. He heard so much about being successful in real estate, so he decided to just jump right into it and see how far it would take him. He took a few seminars along the way, learned from the experts, got good at flipping houses, and never looked back. Today, Larry tells us how he got started, who mentored him and how it influenced his current focus, his strategy when it comes to finding gold in return mails, and his tips for beginners.   “I love vacant houses, but sometimes they're occupied.” – Larry Higgins   On Today's Episode of Flip Talk: His mentor and why it eventually made him focus on owner finance. His dilemma regarding how to find the best deals and how he learned to skip trace. What he says or writes to a potential seller to get them to call him. How he makes use of skip tracing in elevating his business and how it improved his profits. The one deal he wishes he never did. Some advice he would tell a younger version of himself. How you can utilize Google Street View in making your real estate business easier?   Larry's Tips for Getting into Real Estate Investing: Extricate yourself out of the daily minutia.

Larry Higgins is a real estate investor based out of Houston, TX. After graduating from Texas A&M University in 2003 he began his career in construction project management which he thoroughly enjoyed until 2013 when for the first time in his life, he found himself in a job from which he got no sense of satisfaction and decided he needed to make a change. That’s when he decided it was time to quit and jump into real estate full time although he had zero experience in it and had never even done a deal. Fortunately, during this transition, Larry stumbled across Mitch Stephen, whose mentorship helped him hit the ground running. Like so many other investors have experienced before he knew it, Larry had a huge stack of returned mail from his mail campaigns and he knew he needed to do something with it. After getting in touch with several skip trace services he realized how expensive it can be to skip trace so he decided to learn how to become his own skip tracer. Two deals later and he fully realized how crucial it is to be able to skip trace returned mail. But it wasn’t just the returned mail that got Larry’s attention. As he worked his business he couldn’t help but notice that some letters weren’t returned for weeks, months, or even years (yes years) after they were initially mailed. He also witnessed first-hand how in most cases where his mail was received and he happened to get an appointment, it had a lot to do with luck in what he calls the yellow letter lottery. This is where the seller has received a stack of mail from other investors and the seller decides to pick just two or three people to call and get offers. No matter how great you think your mailing list is, if you’re in a larger market, the odds are there’s at least a dozen if not dozens of other investors mailing the same people. So with a keen understanding that he was losing valuable time and leaving too much to chance with mailing, he knew he needed to create a system that allowed him to skip trace high volumes of people or lists and then call or text them. In another stroke of luck, Larry had just started partnering with Will Denker, an established and successful investor in Houston. With their combined knowledge and experience, and the great team Will already had assembled, they were able to create the system they envisioned. Now that they have created this system they no longer do mail campaigns and they rely strictly on skip tracing lists of potentially motivated sellers and contacting them via phone calls or text messages and it’s transformed their business. The ability to skip trace high volumes of people in a cost-effective manner has not only given them the ability to find and call or text the potential sellers, but it allows them to scan the lists and identify great deals that are flying under every other investor’s radar. The bottom line result is that they are more successful at getting deals and the deals are much more profitable. After first implementing their system their average assignment fee grew from $10,000 to $22,000 and then after becoming much more targeted they doubled it again to their current average assignment fee of $44,000. Because they now have their strategy defined and much more targeted, Larry and Will recently decided to create skipgenie.com to begin sharing their high-volume skip trace system with other investors in various markets around the country, and helping them develop and tailor a system around their specific goals. What you’ll learn about in this episode: How skip tracing compares to mail How your cost-per-buy is dramatically lower with skip tracing Why you should not be using lower-tiered skip tracing services One issue with skip tracing that a lot of people complain about Why you shouldn’t hesitate to contact relatives if you if you have good leads, especially with vacant properties Why every deal you do should involve skip tracing Why you should focus on being more targeted whether you’re mailing or calling How to get a tighter ratio of leads to deals The best way to get your footing when you’re just starting out Resources: REInvestorSummit.com/skiptrace REInvestorSummit.com/5Free REInvestorSummit.com/Grow REInvestorSummit.com/live REInvestorSummit.com/aof Love the show?

Today’s episode is a little bit different because I’m talking to Larry Higgins, a skip tracing genius. He’s got his own company – Skip Genie – where his team helps other real estate agents do all of their skip tracing. For those of you who don’t know, skip tracing is a way to find sellers. These sellers are usually hard to find because their properties are what Larry calls “distressed”. These are vacant properties, tax delinquent properties, or properties where owners are deceased and the estate is looking to sell. If you can skip trace correctly and connect with these unique sellers, you can catch some amazing deals. You’re going to be surprised at Larry’s investing profit strategy. He absolutely hates direct mailers (even though his company deals with a lot of mailers!), but his unique perspective really gives him up a leg-up in this industry. He can connect real estate agents like you with skip trace sellers looking to sell ASAP. His secret is automation. Your mailers combined with his searching techniques could really unlock a lot of possible deals for you by just connecting you with sellers you would have never known about otherwise. So listen to the podcast and hear what Larry has to say! He’s going to blow your mind with his skip tracing strategies.

What you’ll learn about in this episode: Larry’s background The benefits of skip tracing vs. sending a piece of mail How the bulk skip tracing process works The strategy for looking for good deals What the ‘yellow letter lottery’ is all about How building a rapport can help you get an offer The importance of having good systems in place Using technology to manage your time Why you need to chase leads Why bulk skip tracing is easier to do than a single skip trace Resources: REInvestorSummit.com/skiptrace REInvestorSummit.com/mypodcast REInvestorSummit.com/live REInvestorSummit.com/101 REInvestorSummit.com/100 Love the show?
