Pace Morby has great content and so does Steve Trang at "real estate disruptors." Regarding the post above, I disagree. I think wholesaling requires a lot of effort and hustle at the beginning but you will find that having a real "deal" under contract affords you a ton of exit opportunities (flip, lease option, wholesale, BRRRR). Being able to scale that is difficult but can be very financially rewarding. I actually completed my education for my RE license and got so busy I put the actual test on the back burner to focus on my wholesaling/flipping company. Maybe I pick it up next year, well see.

I also educate people on how to get started and scale their company but am happy to chat informally on BP. A general rule is, the less money you spend on marketing the more you have to hustle. If you can spend 2-5k I would select your market and then start getting your data together. You'll need a list of motivated sellers to target. I would do the cold calling/texting yourself to start so you understand the work itself but then quickly delegate it after closing your first 2-3 deals. 

If you do not want to spend money, download DealMachine and drive for dollars. Get on other wholesalers lists, make friends, network..always.

I think avoiding C and D class neighborhoods is important to invest out of state. You just won’t manage the hassles as well as a local investor. I also avoid rehabs over 15k unless I really trust the Contractor in that market. I try to win on price and not on the rehab if I am not going to be there to to manage it. Some people call that “wholetailing” now I suppose.

hey all! I just entered the Charleston, SC market. My team wholesales deals across the US but are new to Charleston. Would love to meet with other wholesalers, flippers, and just make more partnerships in general. @Lucas Rowell please feel free to reach out to me if you are still in the market for deals!

My team wholesales a good portion of the deals we put under contract. We typically pull buyers lists and use text, RVM, Facebook and a few other ways to sell them

We are starting to look at flat fee listing services to put our deals on the MLS. Does anyone here have advice or experience doing this ? Any other creative ways to list their deals?

Thanks all!!

I am a investor, wholesaler, flipper that invests in Tennessee. I am helping a seller move some agricultural land in Clarksville TN and I wanted to see if anyone in the BP community has experience rezoning agricultural land. Its about 45 acres total along a main road. Right now it is priced to sell but this asset requires a particular buyer so I wanted to see if anyone out there has worked in this space in the past. 

Hey everyone!

My team has done a few creative deals this year via seller financing and wraps and are continuing to learn more each week. I was curious if anyone knows of a good turnkey provider that acquires homes via creative financing? Like a wrap or seller financed. Thanks everyone !

@Jason Grote

Since the areas are newer to me I was looking

for some general advice on which sub markets in Buda and Kyle are best to invest in.

I also may use a different lender than my last property so if anyone has a good loc recommendation I would be grateful

@Beau Fannon

Thanks for the insight. Do you work heavily in that area or know anyone that has built a SFR portfolio in Buda? It would be great to catch up with someone who has some experience.
