My Take on Every Thread in the Wholesaling Forum
My Take on Every Thread in the Wholesaling Forum
1. Newbie with no Capital want to “begin real estate investing” by wholesaling
2. Current “wholesalers” offer encouragement, general advice, etc.
3. Real Estate Brokers tell OP that wholesaling is unethical, illegal, etc.
4. Other investors tell OP that chance for success is minimal, and that wholesaling is not investing
5. Inexperienced wanna be investors chime in that naysayers are just trying to kill someone’s dream, don’t listen to naysayers “haters just want to hate” , etc.
6. Thinly disguised point man for wholesaling guru states that he had great success only after paying for mentoring with this particular guru.
7. Jay Hinrichs points out that this particular guru was indicted in Oregon for fraud, and is being sued in Washington
8. Don Konipol votes on Jays post
9. OP asks another blatantly ridiculous question
10. #2 thru #8 above repeat again

@Don Konipol
11. OP never responds, because advice on BP is not what they want to hear.
