Yes, we are still closing many deals. We close around 10 on average a month and our strategy has changed given that it's more of a buyer's market, we have to get them a little bit steeper when it comes to locking these properties up. However, for our marketing, we're doing cold calling, Google Ads in Facebook and also a PPL pay per lead using ISP to lead. That's what's working for us in our markets.
We are currently doing in Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee, essentially just nationwide major metropolitan areas. I would love to see how we can help you, we have a community where we talk about everything to do with wholesale. Just send me a DM and I'll be happy to share it with you.

Hey Chris! A DSCR loan is a solid play for a Memphis buy‑and‑hold, since it underwrites off rent income instead of your personal ratios.
For the down payment and closing costs consider a small private money partner, offer them a clear return and let them cover that gap. You can also explore a HELOC on your primary home if the rates look good. If you want more ideas there's a Skool community I use, just peer support and fresh strategies.

Hey Aaron! I have some people I could recommend, feel free to reach out and I'll send you their information.

Investors don’t inherently hate cold calls, especially when they’re about a solid deal. What they dislike is irrelevant pitches.

If you know their criteria, recent transactions and preferred markets, a cold call becomes an opportunity, not an interruption. Lead with a one-sentence hook ("I've got a 5-unit value-add in your area that hits your 12% IRR target") and follow up by asking if they'd like the full deal package.

When calls are targeted and respectful of their time, investors pick up.

Congrats on stepping into this role, sounds like you’re approaching it with the right mindset.

One thing that helped me early on was getting hyper-local. Start by picking a few zip codes and digging into them deeply. Look at what’s selling cash, what’s being listed and relisted and where flippers are doing repeat projects. Drive those neighborhoods, talk to neighbors, contractors, and local investors.

Also, stay in regular touch with seasoned buyers in your market. Ask what their buy boxes look like and how they’re underwriting risk today, not last year. It’ll fast-track your learning and help you reverse-engineer what real demand looks like.

Being in a wholesale brokerage gives you an advantage if you treat it like a long game learn from every lead, every objection, and every deal that falls apart. That’s where the sharpest lessons are.

Keep going, momentum builds fast when you're consistent.
