Questions for Wholesalers Around Hartford County, CT -

Hello wholsalers,

Thanks for taking the time to read my post!

I'm reaching out to wholesalers who have completed their 1st deal already in the Connecticut area. I have been trying to get my start as a wholesaler in Hartford County, CT, but haven't gotten my 1st deal under contract yet. I'm stuck and have a few questions that I can only get answered by experienced wholesalers from this market.

How did you finalize your first wholesale deal?

It's my understanding that I need to have 1st secured POF from an interested investor and the green light on a property and get it under contract before I can even get the seller to accept/decline an offer. This has really been stumping me from moving forward on my 1st deal - I've found investors, I've found properties, I've analyzed them and found good deals - but I get ZERO motivation from investors, even those that took interest before, unless I bring them a deal UNDER contract.

Thanks for taking the time to help. On top of the questions above, any other advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

John Hall

You need a motivated seller.

then you need credibility.

If bill gates wanted to buy your house in cash... would you ask him for a proof of funds?

No right? Why?

you know he is good for it. He is credible.

If you are dealing with someone that truly needs tio sell their house abbr you are credible you will succeed... as long as the house is not a tear down of course.
