Trouble Wholesaling Los Angeles County

[Emma S.]

I'm going to be honest here. I'm a newbie in real estate and I've always wanted to work in the industry. I've spent an obscene amount of money on marketing and courses. My entire summer has been dedicated to marketing, attending seminars, and REIA meetings. I have never thought in a million years that wholesaling would be easy. However, it's hard putting 40-50 hours a week (mailing and skiptracing) on something that isn't paying off. I use a site called realeflow to find leads. But I want to exercise different methods. If anyone is a wholesaler in the Los Angeles County tell me what you did in order to get motivated sellers to call you? My problem is that I have a long list of buyers who want to buy property thanks to my direct mail. Yet, I've only received tire kicker phone calls. It's incredibly frustrating and I want to fix whatever I'm doing wrong.
