The Best Way to Find Properties to Wholesale?

Brandie Lyons
  • Humble, TX
Posted

Hi all,

My name is Brandie Lyons and I'm from the Houston, TX area. I am starting my journey in wholesaling and looking for ways to locate potential sellers. I know there are plenty Houstonians looking to sell their homes after Hurricane Harvey. I have mailed out some letters and even did Drive for Dollars. I am finding most properties that would be great for my buyer are already listed on the MLS. However, a lot of the properties are extremely overpriced considering the damage to the homes. I don't want to make signs (they're literally on every street corner in Houston and the surrounding areas). I am not looking to get rich quick (only hard work and lots of hustle gets you there). If anyone could provide advise or any help I would greatly appreciate it.

@Brandie Lyons don’t let the 9-5 get in the waynof your 5-9. Get a list together, find a wuiet place furingnyour lunch hour. Take 10 minutes to eat and call for the other 50. EVERYDAY and double time on the weekend.  If your not hustling believe me there is someone in your market that is💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾  STAYHUNGRY
