How long does it take to get into wholesaling?

Reid Balmelli
Posted

Hello, my name is Reid Balmelli and I live in an area south of Olympia, WA. I've recently been learning about real estate and would still consider myself very new. I took an interest in wholesaling as a way to start making capital as I am 18 with low amounts of capital. I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to get into it now, or wait because I will be moving to Phoenix, Arizona in about 3 months. I will be having lots of time in the next 3 months to put into it, but I wanted others' opinions on what I should do. Thanks!

@Jerryll Noorden I generally agree with your posts but in some markets SEO just isn't going to work. One of our largest investor markets is Baltimore City and I can assure you if the sellers do not or cannot use the internet to complete the closing process they definitely are not using it to try to find buyers.

In some markets old school paper, phone calls, bandit signs, etc. are still the only way to get leads as well as deals closed.
