You’re using 1975 marketing in 2025……

The only reason mailers worked in the last 15 years were the number of elderly homeowners who still read their mail, had land lines,  and wrote paper checks.  Now even my 93 year old uncle uses an iPad, messages on his iPhone, and pays his bills electronically.  

What advantage is Propstream when everyone has access to the exact same information, leads, etc.?

You need to either become very creative in identifying potential sellers and extremely skilled in executing and negotiating “deals”, or invest $120,000 + annually in marketing, and have employees skilled in delivering results.  

I know a couple of successful wholesalers who are lone wolfs and have done pretty well. They acquired extensive knowledge in a niche area of COMMERCIAL real estate and have the persistence, knowledge and skills to take a potential transaction to fruition.  The other successful wholesalers who I know are in residential and have large organizations with heavy monthly nuts.
