Starting to wholesale

[Robert Nelson]

so I'm starting a wholesaling career with my wife in wesley chapel, FL (will be attending the tbrei meeting this Thursday) and had a question about finding our first deal. I am a realtor and have mls access, have been going through the mls in various areas around the Bay Area getting addresses of absentee owners and then using whitepages to look up phone numbers to said owners. How many phone numbers will I need to generate my first sale (I plan on getting and dialing 500 numbers this week) I figure this is a decent way to start because my marketing budget is $0 so can't really afford to send mail or get bandit signs at the moment
