Thanks for posting.  I was just formulating a similar question.  Now I can read the responses to your questions.

I run a robust wholesaling operation in multiple states. Got my start over a decade ago with an on-site mentor who spent three days with me in my market, helping me get deals in my market while he was there, helping me get buyers for those deals while he was there, and teaching me everything I needed to know to not only pay for my training but launch a business that has grossed me hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years.

I know it's hard to pick the right mentor. I have read too many instances and heard personally of too many instances where people spent $45,000 or more for "training" and are yet to do their first deal. I am glad to share the name and number of the guy I used if you are interested. He is still active today (the fact that he has stood the test of time speaks volumes about the quality of his work), and gladly share his contact information for the asking. I love this business and am glad to do my part to help people get off to a good start.

 Thanks for Sharing.  :)

@Nicolas Leon

@Shericka Smith and @Nicolas Leon thank you both for connecting with me.  

I've been listening to many podcast about real estate wholesaling.  However, usually the wholesalers are doing business outside of California.  Nicolas, my question is whether this works in a California market?

Sincerely,

Christal B

@Penny Clark, 

I'm actually not a mail carrier as @Tim Soto suggested, but still good advice. Thank you for reaching out.  

Kindest regards,

I wanted to thank you for reaching out and for your suggestions. You could have been doing anything, but you decided to welcome me and I appreciate it.  Have a wonderful week.
