New wholesaler in Laguna Beach, Orange County California

[Abed Asghar]

My name is Abed Asghar and I currently reside in Laguna Beach.

I had a job at a large fitness corporation and have always wanted to get into real estate investing. I ran a multi million dollar health club in Irvine, Orange County but felt I never had time to pursue my real estate dream, needing to be at work for over 55 hours a week most weeks. I decided to quit my six figure job to fulfill my real estate investment education and devote time to it, I knew it was the only way for me to learn anything and truly achieve the financial independence I was aspiring for. It's been a while now into Cody Sperber's fast track program learning how to wholesale real estate online, but I haven't pocketed any profits yet besides the education. I've been putting up bandit signs all over Orange County, searching through Craigslist and sending out direct mail, but my phone hasn't started ringing yet with motivated leads. I haven't managed to put something under contract still.

The unfortunate truth is that I've run out of money, and am afraid to go back to working a corporate job again. I've been the breadwinner for my family (it's just my wife and I) and she is stepping up saying she'll be getting a job to support my real estate goals! I feel like I could possibly be doing something wrong, or maybe I have to be more patient. Is there something I should be doing that I'm not, what can I do at this point to sell my first deal?

Sincerely!

Abed Asghar
