Why is my next step in wholesaling???
Hey BP family, I could really use your help!
So I'm a licensed realtor here in Florida and I just moved down to Tampa Fl from pensacola Fl a few days ago. I like being a realtor but I really want to get into the investing side, which was my main reason for moving. I want to start wholesaling and I know what to do for the most part but I just need a littler more details on the steps. I have a list of off market homes that are clear of judgements liens etc. along with the owners address. I also have some letter samples to send to the owners. But... what now???? Do I just start mailing to everyone on the list( well over 100) or do I need to do more research on the properties and choose a few to start with?? All advice is welcome.
Thanks in advance

Before you spend money on mailing the contacts, you really need to build a buyers list. If you got a house or 2 under contract, who would you flip it to? Ideally get 10 real buyers on that list first, then do the mailing. Postcards are much better than a letter.
There are some great investment groups in the Florida area. Be sure to check out Peter Fortunato dot com. He has free weekly get togethers with like minded investors. Peter is a very creative investor and will likely have a buyer for any properties you get under contract.
