How to start wholesaling

[Adelaide Wolcott]

Hello BP!! My brother and I want to dive into real estate and he has friends who started their journeys with wholesaling because of their motivation to hustle and lack of funds right away. We have been doing research on the topic and started the learning process but we are looking for any tips on where to begin taking concrete steps like building a seller/investor list, where the most effective place to advertise is like direct mail or cold calling, and what market to be in. We are living in Northern Virginia (Ashburn) area but don't think it's the best place to try this strategy because of the prices and house types here vs great investment deals. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!! Also possibly considering the Knoxville tn area as I will be moving there in the future but I keep hearing about how competitive the fix n flip market is and lack of deals sitting around....
