How Do I Avoid This Wholesale Paradox?

[Carl Flint]

Hey guys

I have yet to do my first deal. I have 6+ months of research and the “learning phase” under my belt. At this point, I know that in my market I want to start with wholesaling.

I am going on realtor.com and other similar sites and texting/calling 10 agents a day just to say I’m an investor and I am looking for good cash deals.

I firmly believe that as long as you have a good deal then you’ve got something to work with. So, I’m on the hunt for a great deal.

Here’s what I’m afraid of: I don’t want to tarnish my name among the community as someone who talks a big game but can’t close... what if someone brings me a great deal to wholesale but I can’t find a cash buyer?

And conversely, if I go out and start networking with cash buyers as “someone who can wholesale them great deals” before hand to get a base of buyers... how do I avoid becoming known as the guy who can’t deliver when it comes time to deliver a deal?

Does that makes sense? Please help.
