Earn Up to $5,000 per Deal

Driving for Dollars, also known as Bird Dogging, is finding distressed properties while driving around neighborhoods and referring them to real estate investors for a finder's fee. It's the fastest way to get into real estate and start learning about real estate investing.

You can earn up to $5,000 per successful deal that closes. There are no limits to how many properties you can find and refer.

The typical timeline is 3-5 weeks total: 1-2 weeks for contact and negotiations, 1-2 weeks for contract review and inspections, and 1 week for deal close and payment distribution.

You only need a car, a phone with camera, and keen observation skills. It's a low-cost, high-reward opportunity that fits into your daily routine.

Look for signs of distress: sheets in windows, unkept yards, maintenance needs, trash in yard, roof repairs needed, no/overloaded mailbox, and notes on doors. Focus on foreclosures, fixer-uppers, and abandoned homes.

Text the details to (719) 759-8909. Include a picture of the front of the house, the complete address, and any specific details or conversations with neighbors.

Stop, take a good picture, note down the address, post a flyer if appropriate, and talk to neighbors to learn the property's story. Then submit the lead to us.

Plan strategically by focusing on one neighborhood per day. Vary your typical routes to work or home, expand out from your current location, and repeat the same drives every month to spot new opportunities.

Flyers help when owners never visit the property or when it's in probate or inheritance situations. Neighbors often see the flyer and make connections to owners or relatives, helping facilitate contact.

No, it's completely free to participate. You only need your car, phone, and time. We provide the flyers and handle all the deal negotiations and closing processes.
