One of the most effective ways of driving more leads for your real estate business is to use yard signs, commonly known as “bandit signs” in the real estate industry. All real estate investors, regardless of whether they are rehabbers, wholesalers or landlords are looking for a great wholesale real estate deal at a bargain below market price. The investor that gets the deal first is the ultimate winner. If you are a wholesaler, then you can market the deal to other investors for a profit. If you are a rehabber or landlord, then you can get a great deal without having to pay a markup to the wholesaler that found the deal. So clearly, getting the deal first is what is most important to you and is where utilizing bandit signs can really separate you from your competitors.
