I'm an 18 year old who really wants to get into wholesaling and learn about real estate investing. From what I understand by reading other posts is that the best way to learn is to start doing it and learn from the experiences. I would like to know what the fundamentals are and where and how to learn them. Can anyone help me?
Hey Ethan. 18 is a perfect time to start. You can learn everything you need to know on YouTube if you dont want to pay for a course. Essentially, reach out to A TON of property owners with indications of distress and ask if they want to sell. (You will learn along the way - the more conversations you have the better.) Simultaneously reach out to active Buyers in your market and ask them them what theyre looking for. Which lists of property owners to call, where to find the lists, where to find the buyers, how to reach out to them is what you can find on YouTube. It will depend on your budget, time you have and the market you're in.
You’re already ahead just by realizing you need to take action. Most people stay stuck “learning” forever. The fundamentals are simple. Talk to sellers. Understand why they want to sell. Make offers that solve their problem. And follow up like crazy. That’s the business. You don’t need to know everything to start. You need reps. Start calling, start having real conversations, and you’ll learn faster in 30 days than most people do in a year of watching videos. If you want, shoot me a message and I can help you get your first conversations going.
