flipping houses - step 2 when starting your wholesaling business



Hire A Mentor


Look, I'm not going to beat a dead horse here.  You can read all of my reasons as to why this is a good and wise investment right here:


blog post: hire a mentor


One thing to note, though:


If you hire a coach, no need to buy books, CD's, courses, DVD's or attend any boot camps whatsoever.  When I first got started in this business, I read exactly two books - Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Real Estate Riches - and neither has anything to do with flipping houses.  Stop buying all this stuff!  Instead of getting you closer to your dream, it serves to cloud your mind with mass amounts of information, creating fear and inactivity.


It's an endless and deadly cycle.


Just hire someone to teach you the business, review your leads and help you with the exit process.  It'll cut your learning curve immensely and save you tons of frustration... and money... in the long run.


Look, I don't do what I do because it makes me rich.  Far from it.  I do it because I love it.  And, I'm also a huge proponent of it.

  1. $40k is a ton of money. I set up my coaching program with different levels at different price points in the hopes that everyone will be able to afford it. In addition, even with my high end coaching level, all you need is two flips in a year to break even. That's it. Four flips... and you make twice what you invest in coaching.


  2. I have seen to many "investors" never buy a property. Instead they buy bootcamps. I am a fan of education, but sometimes you need a hand to help you to pull the trigger. I read somewhere that if you go thru the total RICH DAD program - you would invest over 40K. Well here in Chattanooga- 40k can get you into a few properties and with someone to guide you-you can make money!
