Getting bpo's is a full time job, my secret is my blackberry, i usually get the email and can claim an order while on the road. I also found some good information on this forum http://www.undermarketre.com

Thanks Alex for the website.

BPO's are a good supplement to a Realtors income.  The trick is to find a company that pays properly, and to do a good job. I had a BPO company call last week and asked if I would do a BPO for them. I asked what the fee was and the person said $35. I laughed and said,"do you know the price of gas and how long it takes to get around the city just to travel 5-10 miles?" "No, thank you." was my reply.  BPO's are great as long as the banks pay a correct fee.

By the way thanks for the links!

Thanks for the web site.  I'm too new to the process to have much to offer yet. 

Alex, thanks for the free list. I paid a guy $100 for a list that was old and outdated

Can anyone tell me how long it takes to start getting BPO orders. I have applied to at least 25 companies within the past week and so far not one.  I did get an e-mail yesterday from reotrans.com. I responded to the e-mail within 10 minutes of it coming through and the order was already taken by another agent.  Can anyone give me some adicve or share experiences?

Found another helpful BPO list at www.BPOAccess.com

It could take time to get set up on their sites, after you register. But just hold on, they will get you there. BPOs are popular right now and companies Im sure are backlogged. 

Danita; Once you get set up come back to how to get bpo and let us know how long it took. 

Thanks for the info, looks like they removed the register requirement at www.bpoaccess.com and the list is on the 2nd page.

Glad I came across this post. Trying to add BPOs to my business as well.

I signed up with a few companies to do BPO's and in about three weeks I got 4.

I haven't gotten any this week yet.  How do you know if they will continue to use you?

I spent a ton of  time in March signing up with BPO companies. around 25-30 companies.  Ive done some. Mark to Market takes forever to pay like a month and a half or more. EML has been good. One lead from REO trans. 

I really dont do too many any more. They arent really worth the time unless you just happen to be in the area or do a ton of them.  I have not really received any phone calls from any companies

and none have lead to REO's  Everyone around  here wants to do REO's. Hard to get into.

Seems  like a  handful of agents get all the business. Some agents have hundreds of listings

Thank you all very much

Exactly what I was looking for...Thank you!!

Glad to hear agents are finally getting orders and results since signing up. Im sure each regional area is different. Im still waiting for a chance, and learning alot on here to prepare!

Can you let me know how you catch the BPO's on the blackberry i am unable to do that yet. I know they are there but can't go further on the the blackberry i have to go to my email then it is too late.

Hey There,

Came across this BPO Agents Wanted website regarding Banks Needing Realtor's to help with foreclosures.

I checked it out and signed up and there was a lot of valuable information and it didn't cost me a penny
.
So I figured you might want a crack at it! And sent this over to you.

Here is the link:

Hope you enjoy it as much as did.
