And it's going to teach you how to properly source deals because wholesalers is NOT the way.

Some restrictions include, that in some states, you now have to be a licensed real estate agent to wholesale.

Networking with local agents, wholesalers, and property managers usually beats paid leads.

Capitalization - the successful wholesalers I know spend $10k per month on marketing.  

There are some good wholesalers in the metro why not connect with one of them and try working with them for a bit while you learn the ropes?

I’ve been able to offer wholesalers $10,000 to $25,000 below their already discounted prices and for the most part, I have been getting those properties.

My plan is to run some wholesale and fix/flips to begin and eventually open my own shop and hire some additional agents at that point, but that's still a few years out. 

I’d be happy to help you explore multifamily options and share what financing would make the most sense for your goals.To hit your questions one by one:• I’m a mortgage broker, not a direct lender — that means I shop multiple wholesale lenders to find the best rates, terms, and programs for each client.• I offer a full range of conventional, DSCR, investor cash flow, bank statement, and portfolio multifamily loans.• Yes, I can communicate directly with listing agents to help strengthen your offer and show that financing is solid.• The money I lend comes from reputable wholesale lenders and banks I’m approved with — all underwritten through standard agency or investor guidelines.• For down payment assistance, those are generally limited to owner-occupied deals — happy to run through what’s available if you plan to live in one of the units.• To start, I’d just need some basic info about your goals, income, credit, and property type — we can figure out the best fit from there.• Pre-approvals usually take 24 hours or less once I have the necessary info.• Yes, I have rate lock programs available through several of my lenders.• I can absolutely share references and reviews from clients, including some who are active here on BiggerPockets.• And yes, I regularly connect clients with investor-friendly agents, property managers, and insurance pros in the area.If you’d like, we can set up a quick call or Zoom to talk through what you’re looking for and get you pre-approved.– David Stephens

They’re relocating out of town and would like to sell by the beginning of the year.Here are the key details:Current rent: $1,850/month (tenant is month-to-month, wants to stay)Market rent estimate: $2,200–$2,350/monthTenant history: Has been there for about a year; was paying $2,150 at their prior rental, so an increase to $2,000+ should be manageable.Seller’s situation: They owe about $156,000 on the property and want to net around $100,000 after all taxes and fees.Existing mortgage rate: 3.5%Wholesaler offer: $287,000My position: I just bought a fixer-upper, so most of my cash is tied up, but I can access around $100,000 from a HELOC at 6.5% (15-year draw / 15-year repayment).Question:Is there a way to creatively structure a deal that allows me to leverage the seller’s existing low-interest mortgage — even though it’s not officially assumable?

I want to do my first flip but need to wholesaler contacts.
