Good question. I have done this in the past. Now, let's say that I have "discovered" a sub-niche in the whole TLD universe (hard to believe, I know) and my strategy is to buy about 1,000 domains to stake my territory there, and of those I am pretty sure I can sell quite a few for >25K each, the remainder would be less, and - of course - some would remain unsold.
In the past I have done lease-to-own domain deals.

It's one of those things that.. once you see it a lot of people would say "Why didn't I think of that?" So I am laying low for now. While I could foot the bill to register the 1,000 domains, and I will, and I will also incorporate a special entity just for this project; I need to acquire "domain expertise" (pun intended) how to monetize the portfolio, I don't want to have that many domains sitting there unused, but I don't have the bandwidth or expertise to do outreach business development.
- ada1981 5y agoHmm… I have a friend who has made millions buying and selling domain names if you’d like an introduction. 1,000 names is what, $10k? You could just sell 1 of the names, but the domains, and then get someone to sell them.
