@Ilana Dan, I started as a landlord, then flipper and after a few years landed on wholesaling and never looked back.  I really enjoy it and my team is amazing at what they do!  Now I get to share what we do with others on my podcast and youtube channels.  

My best advice, find a wholesaler that you want to emulate and jump into their stuff if they have a podcast, book, facebook group, youtube channel etc.. There is so much noise and contradicting information out there it's very easy to get confused about what you should be doing.  Good luck!

@Sion Harrington, you can't go wrong with @Stuart Grazier and his team. We just put on a REI event for military members and I watched their presentation and how they take care of their clients, amazing!

I am a wholesaler and flipper in Pensacola as well as a military member.  I was active duty for almost 15 years and now a Reserve instructor at Whiting.  Good luck, and hopefully I see you in Pensacola one day.

We created a made for YouTube TV show about flipping houses in 7 days.  I follow around Tyler Jensen in Salt Lake City as he attempts to flip 4 houses in 7 days!

Tyler and his team have flipped 3 different houses over the last year in 7 days but never 4 at one time!

Follow along with us as we see if they can do it!

We have already released episode 1 and a new episode will be launched as a watch party on YouTube every Monday night at 8pm Central Time.

@Bryan C., I didn't realize this wasn't updated.  I can't change the main posts but I thought I commented on all the events I made initially.  Thanks for that. 

It's online this weekend, May 29-30 and you can see what we are doing at veteranslive.com

$99 a ticket for the lowest ticket price and 100% of the money goes to Veterans Community Project.  


They are building tiny houses to get homeless Vets off the streets!  Help us raise enough money to build at least one house with them!

Post: Mentoring in exchange for capital?

@Victoria Daley, here are some things to think about when looking for a mentor (from my experience at least)

1) No one is going to mentor you for free, it doesn't have to be money but it certainly won't be because you said "hey, I see that you are successful and I NEED a mentor, will you be it?"

2) Going back to step one, instead you will need to add value with nothing expected in return. And don't ask what they need because that is just another "to do" that gets added to a successful persons list. Instead, know your skills and your abilities and use that to help them and propose what you could do to help. That stuff gets noticed and you will slowly work your way in.

3) Going back to step one, pay for it as there are a ton of great coaches, trainers, mentors out there. But it's up to you to find those that you should personally work with. That decision is likely different for everyone, and if you keep reading I'll show you why.

When you are looking for a mentor, coach, trainer, etc... who do you pick?

1) You need to pick someone you align with, core values will drive you there. Figure out who you are and then who out there has similar values to you.

2) Find someone who has done what you want to do and replicate it. They should have gotten to the place you want to get or are ahead of you on the way there!

3) When you find that person that you see yourself becoming or following, go all in and follow them. Listen to them, buy their stuff, dig into their material, don't get distracted. This goes for someone you pay or someone you help. Don't question it and execute and take action.

Good luck finding the right fit for you!  Everyone likely needs someone a little different to really blow up!

Whoa, thanks for the kind words @David Pere!

Where are you planning on wholesaling?  Do you have a marketing budget for the first 6 months?  I would highly recommend you check out some podcasts and find someone who you relate to in the business.  While I'm all for coaching, training and mentorship it has to fit where you are too.  Get some base knowledge first about wholesaling, make sure it's the best fit for you, set the budget and goals, then take action!  I ask the location because that can be important when it comes to the budget.  

6 months is an important number to me, it took me 4.5 months to get my first deal but since then I've done over 600 in the last 4 years.  What if I quit after 3 months?
