San Antonio- wholesalers, would love to hear someone's success story. Where are most deals found? Can I be added to your buyers list?

Hello, everyone! I'm not asking for anyone's secret sauce if you will. But, I would like become involved in the local wholesale community, and if anyone would like to share some advice with me, I'd gladly accept it. Also, I would love to expand my network and help others if I can, so please take this opportunity to connect with me.

Hi @Jessie Bienvenu, deals are found in many ways.  

• Sphere of influence can provide many deals.  Do people know that you are in the business of solving problems, and providing solutions for difficult properties & situations?  
• Start networking with people in the business, if you haven't already done so.  Check meetup.com for the location of RE meetings near you.
• Drive neighborhoods, looking for houses that don't seem to be occupied or taken care of.
• Post signs, flyers, etc (in compliance with local regulations and laws, of course)
• Knock on the doors in neighborhoods where a house was recently sold.  Chances are high that one of the neighbors intends to sell soon.

These are just a few suggestions.  There is not one simple way to find deals.  They won't chase you down when you first get started.  If you build a relationship with people, treat people fairly and ethically, and strive to solve THEIR needs and not yours, you will have plenty of deals to choose from.
