The $1,000 investor starter guide

Densil Brown
Posted

Hi BP community, I have been wholesaling for one month and am eager to closing on my first deal. I like the possibilities of creating through real estate through so many methods and allowance for financial freedom. Enough about me though.

I’m wanting help budgeting $1000 cash flow for scaling my wholesale business. I’m aware of marketing being the majority of that budget. How would you target that marketing and would you use virtual VAs?

Im interested learning what other early wholesaler experiences were like. I’m focusing on virtual and will eventually start focusing in my local market NYC. Though cost are expensive considering my starting point. Anyone with experiences they could share? Any advice on building a sustainable budget would be appreciated!

Thank you.

-DB

This is all wrong. The ENTIRE mentality here is wrong.

Listen carefully and hoe you and everyone else here understands this.

Consider this.

I have 15 kids, 4 dogs, 300 chickens, 3 wifes (that don't know about eachother), an uber eats job, and 35 dollars to my name. I have obviously no time to spare as I am busy.

I only have 2 hours every other sunday to devote to my wholesaling business.

Based on what I have, how do I make it?

Now focus.

That is NOT how success works. You don;t come to success with your terms and bend it into working for you.

It is the exact other way around. Becoming successful has it terms and YOU obey those terms.

You don't figure out how to become succesful with what you have (or do not have). You figure out what it TAKES to become succesful and then use what you have to get what it takes, to become succesful.

If it requires 40 hours a day, $3000/week on marketing, decent clothing, proper english, a decent car and knowledge about the niche... well figure out a way to slow down time to fit 40 hours in a day because that is what it takes!

This is one of the BIGGEST reasons people fail in this space.  Their mindset is not right.

Forget what you have. Figure out what it takes!

Then get it. Then destroy it!
