Thank you for the advice.  Im starting to realize that just mailing the potential sellers just isnt enough.

@Krishonda Johnson Welcome to real estate. You shouldnt be nervous about getting calls, thats the whole reason you are marketing! LOL You should be talking to people every single day. Get comfortable because if you want to be successful then you will have to talk to a lot of sellers. I tell newbie wholesalers to practice on Zillow FSBOs to get comfortable talking to a seller, building rapport and asking questions about their home. Ask these people what is the least they would sell for, would they accept X if you paid cash and closed quickly. Get comfortable talking to sellers, thats the best advice I can give you. Good luck!!

LOL indeed. OP, you at least took a bold step and took some ACTION.  congrats!

Now, step back and figure out what in the freak you are doing. Why are you SCARED you got a phone call?  Toughen up and watch some youtube videos of cold calls, etc.

Hey @Krishonda Johnson what you are feeling is completely normal. Preparation is going to help you reduce some of the fear and anxiety.    First, I wouldn’t focus on waiting for a realtor to call you back with a deal. Motivated sellers who want to get rid of their houses at a deep discount are the lifeblood of any real estate wholesaling business.  Motivated sellers is all you want to talk to!!!  Second, I would start thinking about the systems and scripts that you will use as calls start coming in. For example I have a phone script; a negotiations script; a checklist to prepare for my appointment to view the house; a checklist to estimate rehab costs that I bring with me to my appointments; and comparable analysis sheet to share with the owner. This is just a few examples to give you some ideas. Getting great deals is the result of preparation. Have every step you walk the home owner through calculated. This will increase your confidence and make you seem very professional. Hope this helps.
