How to respond questions posed by the seller

Osei K Boakye

Hello BP community 

I wish to find your thoughts on ways a new wholesaler can respond when a seller asks about the name of the wholesaling company,  location, website etc considering the fact that the wholesaler doesn't have any registered company yet

Hi @Osei K Boakye — Love this question. You’re in a great spot, it’s just you! No giant company, no faceless corporation. 99% of sellers would rather work with a solo entrepreneur who is hustling, than some mega firm who is making millions already. 

I always mention that I am small time, local and doing small and tasteful work. Many people don’t want to hear that their property is going to be scraped off the block once they decide to sell! 

I will say there have been a few sellers now who ask to see some sort of website or reviews to built some level of trust. I almost never meet people face to face, so in these few instances it makes sense that people want to know their deal is in good hands. However, this has never stopped us from getting a deal done and I would definitely push this to your mental back burner. Keep it small and simple for as long as you can!
