Making Contacts with Lending Institutions, Master Contractors and Real Estate Agents
The most important step in setting up your foreclosure cleaning business is finding the contacts.
You may have relatives that work for banks or lending institutions; you may have already established business relationships with real estate agents in your area.
Or, you might just have a feeling for what is a good business decision. A person who keeps well-informed in the business world can pick up and ride the crest of worldwide trends.
It is no secret that the latest enormous trend has been the rise of the forclosure crisis. AND if you want to make a lot of money in a down economy, working in the forclosure cleaning industry is one of the best ways to prosper.
This crisis is not going away for many years to come and hence opens a very large window of opportunity to make a lot of money and establish a strong business that will prosper now and even when the economy does happen to turn around a long time down the road from now.
A good way to start making contacts with the companies responsible for assigning foreclosures to be cleaned is to start making contacts within the larger banking institutions and asking them to point you in right direction.
An easy way to do this is to look them up online and make a phone call and ask who their asset managers are who handle all of their bank owned inventory.
Sometimes these asset managers can help you find opportunities within their own circle of influence.
The Internet is another place to find contacts for Master contracting companies. Be careful when contacting these companies as they only want to hear from qualified companies who understand the business fully. Most times, you only get one chance to make the correct first impression.
Another way to establish contacts is through the Chambers of Commerce of every city you are aiming for.
Start small – don’t tackle the world. Where do you want to provide property preservation and trashout services?
A lot of real estate agents attend Chamber meetings. Make sure to ask them if thay handle any bank owned properies.?
You will want to find the agents who handle bank owned properties. These are the agents that can help you get work. Sometimes real estate agents can help you locate these special agents who handle the bank owned homes.
Then prepare a solid marketing campaign that is industry specific to target your contacts.
The easiest way to market to these contacts is to call them on the phone or go visit them in person and ask for an appointment. Another good way is to send out an email campaign. These are all very easy techniques once you get a few good calls and contacts under your belt.
It’s well worth the time that it will take for you to do this. You will make a lot of money if you do this right.
To every possible contact, write an email or make a phone call introducing your company, requesting the names and addresses of appropriate firms or people to contact.
From the names you get back, write another email or make another call, again introducing yourself, and asking information about their company and how to get invloved with providing your property preservation/trashout services for them.
Request any information you need, to find out who the right person to speak with is and how you might get registered with their company to provide services.
To Your Success,

Hi Anthony, I am new to all this but am very interested. I would like to ask about something. I talked to a bank friend and he told me that the person carring the bank note to the property is the one who pays for the work to be done. Some homes are totaly trashed from people who have lived there before and a lot of repairs are needed. Bids are made for the work and so the trick is to have the lowest bid and not go broke. Who do I see the banker or the real estate people. How do I approch them? Thanks Dan
All vedios are great. Enjoyed them. Not boring like some. My uncle-inlaw
use to do this, in 1988-1995. Would not share how he was making extra
money. He also work for MILER BREWERY. I ask him recently how he like
cleaning houses. He corrected me, I clean out stuff that was left in the
house, got paid good money for that.But he never told me where to start
or any nuts and bolts! Just said it’s HARD WORK MAN!
I am learning enough to get my feet wet. I am on a fix income, which
is at a dead end. I am interested in purchasing the course. Money is problem. So I am going to take a RISK, get one or two jobs myself.Yeah I
know may cut my own throat but I willing to try.
Rigt now my back is against the wall. My house is in Foreclousure.
In process stages of MODIFICATION WITH LENDER. Enough.
