A good first step is educating yourself, keep reading books like Brandon Turner’s, follow podcasts, and check out BiggerPockets for real-life examples.Next, get your finances in order: know your credit, cash reserves, and what kind of loan you’d qualify for.

Hi Calvin, One thing to check on the property is if it resides in an HOA.

Check out the comps and see who purchased those properties, then reach out to them to see if they’d be interested in yours.For example, if someone recently bought a property that’s nearly identical to the one you’re wholesaling, there’s a good chance they’ll be interested in this one too.That’s really the concept, your comps are your buyers.If you’d like to learn more strategies, feel free to shoot me a DM.
