Wholesaling on the MLS

Any advice on how not to come off like a total noob when talking to realtors?

@Natalie Mendoza I am going to give you a little different perspective then the above. You can't avoid looking like a Newbie. Anyone with the experience someone Like I, @Jay Hinrichs, or @Jerryll Noorden has will know within less than a minute that you are new.

Instead I suggest you let then know you are new and work from that perspective. You will get more respect by being honest then by trying to pretend you are more experienced then you are. 

To follow up on what was said above, now is a terrible time to find deals on the MLS if you want to wholesale. The competition is fierce. Every deal gets looked at by lots of investors. It is possible but it is tough.

Most good wholesale deal are found off market.  There are several marketing experts here on BP like Jerryll to learn how to do that. Do a search on how to find deals.
