Wholesaling in a Saturated Market

Hi.

I am from a rural area in northern MO. It has a small wholesaling market and a lot of investment potential with growing communities on a busy interstate.

Someone has suggested that I start wholesaling in the St Louis area mostly virtually.

I am open to that as there most times is a higher market value and more money to be made.

My concern is that St. Louis is saturated with wholesalers. 

I see a plus being that there are definitely more cash investors in the city, but what about the competition? 

How do you stand out in an already saturated market?

@Shannon Guertzgen That's a great question but don't let fear run your life! You honestly have nothing to worry about. The sad thing is that it is so easy to stand out in today's market. Just be reliable and honest. That sounds so simple and silly but trust me it is so true. If you answer your phone, show up on time, provide honest and actual numbers, you will have so much business you won't know what to do. I'm just getting into the wholesaling market and I am looking at these lazy guys half assing things that are doing great, and I can just imagine once I start how much I will make. The little things matter. It all boils down to just doing what's right and treating others how you want to be treated. Just get started and start marketing and finding motivated sellers! Good luck!
