Yes, thank you Alan! Glad to hear from someone who has went through it! I am also a newbie and just trying to find a way to break through on getting a deal. Thank you again!

Thank you @Account Closed. I just wen through his free webinar and was wondering the cost. the 5300 seems like the exact same as the wholesale inc price tag (albeit that was slightly higher).

Thank you for your post! It was very informative for this newbie investor currently trying to learn more about how to proceed!

I’m just starting out as a wholesaler and can see the common issues investors face when dealing wholesalers. I’m glad to have come across this thread to learn of the issues and hopefully do a better job in addressing these concerns in my market.

@Danish Ali Hi Danish! Thanks for the advice I will definitely check out his videos. I’m starting to feel like more deals could be made if I knew more creative methods. 

Can I also ask you since your new as well what have you found to be your greatest lead source? Are you buying list online and where from?

 I'm still researching the best sources but I'm thinking targeted direct mail and Facebook. This may really depend on your area and I have yet to test this out how well this will work in my market.

Hi,

I am a newbie wholesaler and have came across a few leads where the sellers have existing mortgages. Consequently, on all the houses I would offer less than what they owe. Any ways to get around this when negotiating?? Also, any resources to learn how to do creative deals wholesaling? 

Any advice would be great! 

Hey Mario! Newbie here as well. But from what I can tell this is where those creative investing offers come into play. You can check out free videos from Phil Pustejovsky that go into good detail about creative wholesaling. Just fyi, he does try to pitch for his coaching program in his videos as well (which may be good for some). 

Hello, learned some great info from this thread no matter how old it is! I’m just starting out and if someone could also PM me the bird dog contract, I would be very thankful!

@Edgar U. Thank you for your response and suggestion! And yes I actually thought about licensing but may not complete that at my current stage (although I do plan on starting this in a few months). I definitely do want to give wholesaling my full attention to the point where I am day dreaming about it at work! But I do want to keep the stability if my job until this can replace my income so as to fund marketing and whatnot.

Thank you @Yolanda Eiland for the quick response and guidance! I sure will!

Hi Bigger Pockets Community, I am 27 with a wife and 11 month old daughter. I’m partners in a 5 unit multi-fam in Dayton. And I currently work full-time in the Healthcare industry. My goal is to supplement my income and ultimately to replace it. I personally have grown an interest in wholesaling properties. I do not have a real estate license (which I have learned makes it slightly more challenging in Ohio for wholesaling, but maybe not with double closing?). I have read forums/blogs and almost bought a program with a guru online. I am currently looking for a mentor or a guide here in the West Chester/Cincinnati Area who would be willing to show me what I need to learn as I know I have a lot to learn. I am a very eager learner and can do whatever is needed such as finding deals (if pointed in the right direction) to be an asset as well (I would not expect someone to share their experience and knowledge without something for me to offer). I have some savings and am able to make investments as needed for deals or for marketing. I am very responsive as time permits. Any sort of guidance would be very much appreciated even if to say hi :).
