    Angelica, you're actually closer than you think. Property management gives you something most new wholesalers don't have: you already know what properties look like from the inside, you understand maintenance issues, and you know neighborhoods.

    The reason people say "work under an investor" is because they think the hard part is learning to evaluate deals. But the actual bottleneck in wholesaling isn't evaluation, it's finding motivated sellers in the first place. And that part doesn't require working under anyone. It requires pulling data that's already public and free.

    Since you're in Miami, here's exactly what I'd start with:

    1. Miami-Dade County Tax Collector — pull the tax delinquent list. These are owners behind on property taxes. The county publishes names and amounts owed. Financial stress documented by the county at $0.

    2. Miami-Dade Code Enforcement — code violations with dollar-amount repair costs. When a county inspector writes "$14,000 in structural repairs" on a violation notice, that's your repair scope before you ever drive the property. Physical stress documented by the county.

    3. Miami-Dade Clerk of Court — probate filings, liens, pre-foreclosure notices. Legal complexity that makes selling difficult for owners who don't know how to navigate it.

    When the same property shows up on all three — tax delinquent AND $14K code violations AND a probate filing — you've got three independent county confirmations that the owner has a specific, documented problem. That's not a cold call to a random list. That's contacting someone whose situation the county has already confirmed.

    Your property management background means when you call that owner, you're not someone who found a name on a list. You're someone who actually understands what $14K in structural violations means because you've managed properties with similar issues. That's a huge advantage over someone coming in cold.

    Chris can give you the mentorship path. But the data path is something you can start tonight. Miami-Dade's records are all online and free. Pull the tax delinquent list, cross-reference it against code violations, and see what overlaps. That overlap is your starting pipeline, and nobody else in your market is building that list because most wholesalers don't know the data is public.
