Sentry Mode is a fantastic addition to the platform! I'm genuinely excited to see the impact it will have in the near future. Great work team! 

OUTSTANDING JOB!!

Just be careful with this. I’m not sure what "purge" means being used here. It's not clear exactly what that means. There are a lot of legitimate investor and JV companies I've worked with that have been labeled as "daisy chainers," even though they're actually operating as wholesalers or joint venture partners. The label "daisy chainer" gets thrown around, but it's not always a bad thing if the JV process is done transparently and with integrity. For example, I've successfully sold deals to multiple New Western agents, and some of them were considered “daisy chainers”. On the other hand, I’ve also had a Keeglee rep post one of my deals without permission or a signed agreement (posted for a higher price and with bad, incorrect info making the deal look terrible), and I had to send a cease and desist message. So yes, I support removing fake buyers and profiles, but we shouldn’t lump everyone into the same category without looking at how they actually operate. Rob and the investorlift team are smart though. I’m sure they’ve already thought through all this. 

Hi ​@Anthony Price,

That’s a great point, and we’re aligned with you on it. Our approach relies more on our AI algorithm than on simple tagging. Here’s how we ensure legitimate buyers remain on the platform:

1. If a real buyer is mistakenly removed, we reinstate them upon receiving the necessary documentation.

2. We use these cases to further train and improve the algorithm’s ability to identify daisy-chainers.

3. With groups like New Western and Keeglee, we evaluate agents individually - some are great, others not so much, and we handle each case accordingly.

If you have any other suggestions, we’re always open to feedback and happy to consider it!

Great news! We’re tired of dealing with the Daisy Chainers. I’m not sure if AI will be able to delete their accounts. Furthermore, I realized that there are some possibly foreigner scammers using IL and pretend like they’re buyers. However, they are not. One of them wasted our 1 month and said they applied for a loan. When their loan didn’t get approved, she had the audacity to come to us and ask for a loan from us.

Hey,

How does this affect LITE accounts, do we benefit from this too? Or will this be exclusive to upgraded accounts only? I just had the same conversation with a sales team member the other day about this and it sparked my interests to find out that the good buyers are only matched well with subscription accounts that pay their annual or monthly subsciptions.

I was found in awe because I heard so many good things about Investorlift before I was offered the FREE ACCESS. Yet, I understand that the platform is a business and things cost money. Then I see this post today and it got me wondering, is this exclusive to only paid members? If not, it would help me start from the bottom of things with confidence. If so, then I need to keep vetting through these bad buyers, any recommendations or things, tools or scripts I can utilize to screen buyers at the LITE MODE level?

Thanks, all tiers will benefit, at least with the low hanging fruit, I see two known daisy chainers who asked for info on my last post are now labeled “banned”. However, what is hard to police is the daisy chainers (not wholesalers who identify themself as such and say they may have a buyer) but the ones who request info and then market it, outside Investorlift, without telling the contract holder. I got three text messages from my last posts from people with urgent sounding texts requesting info, asap, “cash buyers”, “close fast”... but not naming themselves or how they learned of the contract. So I asked all the same thing, “thanks, how did you learn of this”, the question alone caused one to drop off. The other two said Investorlift, so I said great, you should submit a property inquiry through the system because it helps me track the inquiries and it helps your credibility as a buyer. Only one continued pushing at that point with all kinds of excuses for why he couldn’t do that. Those are the people who are time wastes and will never be able to actually close. I have no problem partnering with someone who can bring a buyer, half of something is better than nothing, just be honest about your intentions.

​@ZorgWorld Hi there! Yes, we have noticed that too! 

This year, we will implement ID verification on the buyer side. Do you think that will help? 

Yes, absolutely! This is a platform-wide solution designed to stay true to our original goals and values — specifically, building a platform for investor buyers (and of course, for you all on the wholesaling side as well).

​@Peter Osmanski Great point! If our system hasn’t already banned them, the best way to clean things up is for all of us to leave reviews for those buyers. Eventually, we’ll introduce public profiles, where real buyers will proudly showcase their projects - and the bad actors will fade due to poor reputations. The ID verification I mentioned above will help support this as well!
