Attending Open Houses

Austin Bright
Posted

Hi

I got advice from an investor that as a beginning Wholesaler, I should try to go to some open houses, even if I don't intend to get the house under contract. I forgot to ask him specifically what I should be looking for... So I'll pose that question here.

Thanks!

I know a lot of wholesalers in the Ohio market...and I can't think of any of them telling me stories about them getting a foot hold by attending open houses. 

A lot of calling, door knocking, mailers, talking to people to help them through their situation and untangle the messes they've made...but no open houses...

Maybe this was a more broad, just get familiarized with the industry and what other homes are selling for and what condition they're in? 

That is my BEST guess...but I'm following this and looking forward to hearing what other people have to say!
