Thank you Brian Fouts. I have quite a few questions to ask you. First, do you suggest starting remote wholesaling without closing any deals locally first?

Second, how did you find bird dogs, agents, and title companies all via phone? How  much did you pay them? How do you gain trust over the phone? Im asking because I definitely want to start my own? Thank you--

So I've been studying a lot about remote/virtual wholesaling. I have also seen a lot of negative backlash about it. In my opinion remote wholesaling or lease pirchase options abroad makes sense. 

I mean think about it. You can assemble a few people on the ground in your chosen areas. You can market from home and hire a virtual assistant.

Yes, you would have to study different markets a lot more, but with Google, nowadays it is a lot easier.

K, now that I convinced myself. What do you all think? Any advice? Pointers? Thank you.

I agree Jeremy, giving people several communication options is the way to go.

I also see a seller texting as a time saver. It's a lot more honest too. 

This is why I believe remote wholesaling with a team on the ground there, is very possible!!

yes, I put out 20 bandit signs last week but no calls yet. How many will it take to receive some calls? Thanks!

Definitely 80% bandit signs and then target your list very well. 

I would send out 20% in post cards and I would hand write those ones. I would study high conversion marketing tactics and keep it to 3 paragraphs but make sure the message is strong and looks as if they were special.

I did this recently and I had only a budget of $250.00. I received 23 calls and I got 1 deal under contract, flipped it and 1 week later picked up my $4000.00 check!!

I had to split the profits 75/25 with my trainer/mentor but hey that was still $3000 dollars! It was my first deal, well I don't really consider my REAL first deal because I didn't do it on my own, but soon I will.

I almost got a second deal under contract, but the house's deed was actually not under the current owner's name. It was a strange and rare situation.

Good luck!!!
