What do investors actually pay for a list of driven addresses?
Driving for dollars keeps coming up as the task nobody wants to do themselves, and I want to build a service around that side of real estate. So my thought was to drive routes and sell the addresses to local investors.
Where I'm stuck is pricing, because I've seen two completely different models described and I don't know which one people actually pay. One is a flat fee per address, and I saw someone say 25 cents to a dollar depending on whether you include photos. The other is a finder's fee, nothing up front and something like $500 to $1,000 if the investor closes on one of my addresses. The second one obviously pays better if the addresses are any good, and someone on another site said that's what bird dogs do.
What I don't understand is why anybody would pay per address at all when they could just pay on results. Is the flat fee just for people whose lists aren't very good?
