New to Wholesaling in NYC – Reaching Out to Sheriff Sales, Divorce Attorneys & Banks

[Edison Sanchez]

Hey everyone,

I’m just getting started in real estate wholesaling here in New York City and wanted to introduce myself and ask for some guidance.

So far, I’ve been reaching out to a few different lead sources:

• Sheriff sales / pre-foreclosures
• Divorce attorneys with clients who need to sell
• Banks with REO / foreclosure inventory

My goal is to find off-market deals, get them under contract, and work with investors who are looking for fix-and-flip or buy-and-hold opportunities. I’m trying to do this with as little capital as possible, so I’m really focused on building relationships and adding value.

If you’re an experienced wholesaler, investor, or someone working in these channels, I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback.

Things I’m especially looking for:

• Tips for navigating NYC’s legal and market landscape
• How to better structure my offers or assignments
• Networking with end buyers who are actively buying right now
• Mistakes to avoid early on

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share some insight or connect. I’m here to learn and take action.
