Finding wholesalers long distance

[Shulammite Ng]

Hi all,

I'm from NY but am looking to get started on my real estate journey in Florida. Currently looking into a few locations such as west palm, Delray beach, and Kissimmee. I've heard that one of the best ways to find a deal where the numbers really work is through wholesalers but as I am not from the area, I find there is difficulty connecting to investors in the local scene. Are there are any fellow REI investors that can offer a bit of insight on how to find wholesalers out of state? Might there be a specific wholesaling forum or website I could look into or is Bigger pockets my best bet? Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you very much

@Shulammite Ng good luck girl! I haven’t found any wholesalers here that provide good deals so I’ve started doing direct marketing myself. Anyway, majority of wholesalers in my experience focus on flip deals so unless you plan to do that remotely (which I wouldn’t recommend), wholesaling may not be the way to go.
