Whole Saling in California

[John Moore]

Is it worth it to attempt my first wholesaling deal in the Southern California market or should I really be looking out of state? Currently I’m starting my search in Louisiana and Texas because I’m worried the numbers won’t pencil in this area, but I’m interested to hear if others have had favorable experiences while saling and flipping out here?

@Tim Gordon I have a full time job tat I’m not looking to quit at the moment. So I’m looking for ways to do deals on the side. I’m newly licensed so I’m looking for a broker that I can arrange a mutually beneficial arrangement with for me to do deals under.

I believe it takes the same amount of effort to do either. But there will be much more opportunities to list a home than wholesale it. There’s a much larger percentage of retail sales, what’s the reason for selecting to focus on the smaller piece of the pie?
