I currently work full time as a teacher and take care of my husband who has an auto immune disease that prevents him from working.
I want to become a wholesaler but I have no idea where to begin. With summer break approaching I think it’s a great time to start. I’d like to connect with a local Las Vegas wholesaler but I want to know what I need to know or skills I need to have that will encourage an established wholesaler to mentor me or allow me to work for them.
What skill sets or knowledge do you look for in a new apprentice or mentee?
@Carlena Alva I have attended fortune builders three day seminar and its a total scam. They want you to pay them 20k (or more) for their “coaching”
You are better off just lighting your money on fire. Find local people in your area instead. Do not give your money to “gurus” who have no vested interest in your success.
Hi @Saundra Swain...Welcome to BP and the investing game! There are different wholesalers in town and the best way to engage is to just get out and network in person. Plug into the local investor meetings & events in Vegas. There are plenty of wholesalers and other investors that you can connect with. Check out local events here:

To be honest, I have already invested with them, and so far I have a registered business, access to tools I normally would not have without a realtor license, it is a online education coaching program, so far I would have not made it this far in the last month not knowing anything about the business or how to know I was doing it right and following the law in doing so. I finally feel like I have something to hold on to and grown on my own that I can do at my own pace... I do see how it potentially appears as a scam, and there are areas that I choose not to invest in that they solicit, but I have spent only 9k and I plan on making that back on my first deal when I cross that bridge, and I'm thankful I'll have them coaching me through that deal process to be sure in doing the right steps to protect myself as well as my clients..
I know nothing about FB or most other programs. I DO know that I'm working with several people who paid large sums of money to Fortune Builders and feel they were mislead because they never got the training they were told they would receive. I recommend you spend money on marketing instead of "programs" and build relationships which will allow you to monetize a a motivated lead you get from your marketing.
I would happily teach anyone everything they needed to know about wholesaling for half of the 9k they are paying to fortune builders. For someone who is coming into real estate with zero knowledge it probably seems like they are teaching so much and giving you such great tools but once youve learned and know what youre doing (if you end up being successful and not filing for bankruptcy) you will look back and say omg I cant believe I paid 9k to learn this.
