When everyone says you can wholesale with little cash how much is “little”?

@Mark Durham

It’s not the earnest money that you need money for. You need real money for the marketing at the very least.

That's true Joel, although I think most people are referring to putting cash into purchasing a property when they say “you can wholesale with little cash”.

But you’re correct, if you want to scale a wholesaling biz, you’ll need money for marketing.

BTW, there are many no cash to little cash methods of marketing as well.
