Getting started

[Jabari Marshall]

Hi Bp members I am totally new to Wholesaling. I heard about it after attending a Philadelphia Investors networking group. I originally went to get more information on real estate as a whole, because i had planned on getting a duplex. Now i'm thinking wholesaling may be a better vehicle to raise money for my duplex or just get into wholesaling.

My question is Where Do I Start. I've done a lot of reading on the net and read books but have yet to find a step by step tutorial on what to do first......

Wlecome to BP Jabari. Some things cannot be pieced into a neat little step by step checklist, and many real estate strategies fall into that category. There is a ton of information about wholesaling here on BP, but you may need to take that information and build a plan of action on your own.

Every market is different and thus, different marketing strategies work in different areas. Furthermore, wholesaling is not nearly as easy as it is often portrays as it requires and understanding of the market, a plan on marketing, the ability to analyze real estate deals, etc.

Here are some places that will help you get started:
