Wholesaling During Covid Outbreak
Hey Bigger Pockets Family!
Wanted to write this post to reach out to others but also share a little positivity for those just starting out!
So I started, genuinely started with marketing a CRM and talking with motivated property owners in December of 2020. I wasn't able to close my first deal until the end of March, while still working full time! But I learned a ton in the process with being able to research, talk with people and understanding how consistent you had to be in this game. About 2 months later I closed my second deal virtually while living in another state after moving from the area I had originally started in! Now in a new state, my brother-in-law and I have teamed up and we are about to close on our first deal, without even starting marketing yet! It was a referral!!
All of this to say, it was extremely tough going month to month struggling to close deals and getting frustrated nothing was happening. I biggest take away is that it's all about consistency. Almost a year later and I'm just now picking up traction to have a consistent deal flow.
Message me if you want to connect, I'm in the St. Petersburg area of Florida!
Let's hear some of your frustrating or success stories out there!
