Wholesale Leads and Licensed Agents

[Thomas I.]

Hello BP,

Not sure if this should be in this forum or in Wholesaling..

So, I have been learning how to Wholesale properties to get my feet wet in the investing game.

One thing that intrigued me as an agent is receiving calls from so-called "unmotivated" sellers that don't really fit the "gotta sell now" wholesale criteria.

Even though these people aren't great for a wholesaler, they seem ripe for an agent.

Does anyone have experience with this? Are sellers turned off to listing their homes with you when you initially contacted them as an investor?

Do more referrals come out of these calls than actual listings? (I'd take both, TBH)
