Getting A Buyers List before a Sellers List?

Hi all,

Still trying to learn all that I can about wholesaling.  But, it seems to me that in an ideal world, I would try to line up a number of cash buyers that are eagerly looking for deals in my area before I even start to get seller leads.  Is this correct only in theory?  Or in reality, do I need to be looking for sellers first?  Thanks!

You can use either. Plenty of people have used BP. Go through some of the wholesaling podcasts they have some great ways for getting the buyers lists and for finding motivated sellers. Keep track of the people with "WE BUY HOUSES" signs in the area you live in. They could be rehabbers or other wholesalers but you don't know until you ask.
