Ok! Thank you so much for your response! Would you ever suggest hiring someone to scope the property and/or take pics/vids of the property before the contract is signed during situations like this? I've been trying to figure out if I should pay for someone to go an see the property (and/or take pics/vids), or if I should just move on from sellers like this (and like you said, try again another time).

@Denise Oatneal it depends.  We've closed 20+ deals virtually.  I tell my sales reps that if the seller is really tough to deal with on the first phone call, then we usually want to pass on it, since if they are that tough just to ask some basic questions, imagine what they would be like when we need access, are negotiating a contract, or God forbid need to try to re-negotiate terms, i.e. ask for an extension, or every once in awhile a price reduction if the repairs a lot more than we originally thought.  But sometimes there are the ones who were terrible on the first call, and then were in a better mood when we had someone else call them on a different day.  If the house is an obvious fixer and has other compelling factors, i.e. it's vacant, thus we know it's probably a pain for the seller, then we may give it a second shot.

Hello All!

Quick question. Do you all entertain sellers who do not want to discuss anything about the condition of the property nor do they have any pictures of the property? I'm wholesaling virtually and I have come across sellers who won't talk, but are ok with me coming to take a look at the property. Since I'm not physically there, I can't do that. I do have boots on the ground in my market that I planned on paying after getting a property under contract. But, I did not consider paying someone to scope out the property before getting it under contract. How do you all handle this situation? Out of all the videos I have watched, I don't think any of the gurus mentioned this dilemma so its not really something I planned for...

Hello!

Does anybody know if REISKIP currently scrubs the DNC list? I've already skip traced my list and entered it in Phone Burner but now I'm wondering if there are any DNC contacts in my list. Thanks in advance for your response!

ok perfect! Thank you!

@Denise Oatneal you can just use any old skip tracing service, they still work. Batch skip tracing is what I preferred… Things like list source no longer are available to SC, but some how propstream still works.

OK Perfect! Thank you so much for responding!

Hello All! I'm a new investor looking to wholesale virtually in South Carolina (closer to the Greenville Area). With that being said, I was curious to see how wholesalers in this state navigate the business with the privacy law in place that prohibits the use of public data for marketing. I'm using prop stream and can gather a motivated seller list. But how I am I supposed to access the contact information when skip tracing? Maybe I'm overthinking this law but I just want to know how I should navigate wholesaling around this law. Thanks in advance for your responses!

I know I'm pretty late to this post but I'm am new to wholesaling and thinking about starting off in South Carolina. I've already purchased propstream. But I am little confused as to how the privacy laws effect wholesaling. Does this mean that once I pull a list from propstream, I won't be able to skiptkace and find the contact information because of the privacy law? I'm sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but out of all the states I've researched, SC is the only one I've come across this problem. I want to pull niche lists from propstream but I don't want to pay for those lists if I can't access the contact information. Also, someone said earlier in the thread that the law prohibited the use of public data for marketing....does this mean even if I do get access to this information, it will be illegal to cold call (since that is a form of marketing)? I know I have a lot of questions so thanks in advance to anyone who answers! :)

Hey Ronelle! I am also interested in joining the program. Have you joined? I just booked a call with their team. Would you happen to know the price of the program? Of course they don't have pricing on the website, but I know it's not free. Please let me know if you joined, how much it costs, and if you liked it! :)
