When you're researching opportunities, it’s easy to end up with lead lists, calculations, and follow-up reminders scattered everywhere. I’d use chatgpt.com to help analyze information, Google Sheets to compare numbers and track leads, and floment.ai to organize deal research into projects with clear next steps. The goal is to spend less time figuring out where everything is and more time taking action on promising opportunities. For those doing real estate deals, how do you currently organize your leads and follow-ups?

looking for advice on pulling owner info (name + mailing address, ideally phone/email too) for off-market properties. I've got a list of addresses I'm interested in but no direct contact info for the owners. What tools/methods are you all using — county assessor sites, skip tracing software, something else? Bonus if it's affordable for someone just getting started. thank you very much!

I've been building my pipeline around off-market leads (absentee owners, code violations, some probate work) and starting to look at auction properties too — specifically the strategy of finding a property scheduled for auction, reaching the owner directly before the sale date, getting it under contract, and then assigning/flipping it before the auction actually happens. A few things I'd genuinely appreciate input on: - How do you all actually work the timing here — how much lead time do you typically need between finding the property and getting a signed contract, to make sure you beat the auction date? - Do you have your end buyer lined up before or after getting the seller under contract? - How do you handle confirming the sale actually gets pulled/cancelled once the underlying debt is paid — any horror stories where that fell through? - For tax auctions specifically vs. mortgage foreclosure auctions — does the strategy/payoff process change much between the two? - Real talk — is this a good place for someone still early to be spending time, or is this more of an "once you've got a few deals under your belt" strategy? I don't want to bite off more than I can chew on my first few deals. Appreciate any real experiences, good or bad. note:sorry you all for asking so much questions at once.

curious what actually gets a reply when you have a deal
