Southern California guy new to virtual wholesaling
I used to think that Virtual Assistants (VAs) were only for investors who were already doing a lot of deals and needed to expand their team.
I used to think that out of state “virtual wholesaling” was only for experienced investors who were dominating their market and wanted to expand.
But now, I’m starting to realize that VAs are a great resource for any investor, especially those who are still working a 9 to 5 and don’t have a whole lot of time to do everything themselves. And success in virtual wholesaling does not appear to be based entirely on your experience/expertise, but finding a partner in the area that is already doing some deals and is looking to ramp up their volume. I’ve only closed one in Oklahoma and four in Michigan so far, but it seems to be a lot more feasible than continuing to look for deals here in Southern Cali, like we have for the past few years. These checks are nowhere near the size of the one from the one flip we did out here, but once I continue to put the proper systems in place, I’m hoping to find consistent success with virtual wholesaling and then hopefully expand from there. Hopefully this post is encouraging to anyone else who may be in a strong seller’s market and may not have a lot of time, but a little bit of money to spend on marketing. Best of luck to everyone out there.
