I'd like to learn about wholesaling including: Autopilot, Finding buyers, and finding good deals. I watched a video from Chris Chico and almost purchased his course but found it very expensive for $800.00. I decided to wait and look for something else. What do you recommend? Thanks
Considering how old this forum is when it started who knows how relevant my response will be.
I'm a newbie as well and still researching to see how I want to begin. I've been hardcore looking at wholesale as a way to get my foot in the door. I've read, watched, and heard from so many why you should start with wholesaling and why you shouldn't touch it with a 60 foot pole.
If you're looking to do wholesale primarily then taking a course would be wise. But if you're like me and just looking to use it as an "in" then I think self directed learning from legitimate resources like this one is probably your best bet.
If you're going to do wholesale at all make sure you know exactly what you're doing before you start so that what you do is kosher. I've found in my research that it is easy fall into some practices of questionable legality. Once you're sure you're doing the right thing I think wholesaling can serve as a good "boot camp" so to speak for getting into investing in real estate since you're mostly just finding and analyzing deals to present to the right investor depending on what kind of property it is. It's a way to dip your toe in the water on all sides of the game without jumping in yet.
