Hi all,

I recently purchased a guide on how to wholesale properties. I conceptually understand the process however it seems like a lot of legwork. Im down to put the work in but want to know 2 things...what would be the most efficient and effective way to use my time to get houses under contracts and to close deals. I have subscribed to propstream and have a way to create a funnel but I would love to hear feedback on how to use this tool or any other tool to effectively get houses under contract and to use my time efficiently. Or is it even worth the time. Thank you

 How to get started:

1. Get your financing in place

2. Hire a realtor

3. Get on every wholesaler list possible 

4. Start networking with other investors

5. Start developing a list of property management companies, General Contractors, handymen

6. This is probably the most important- Make sure you understand the financials associated with rentals

7. Start getting recommendations for real estate attorneys

8. Consider establishing an LLC for your real estate- On my first property I had a loan from a bank but I had established a Property management LLC to manage the property. While I lived in the property my tenants did not know I was the owner. All payments went to the LLC.

I probably forgot something.

By the way I saw a few negative comments in the thread about why you should not do this.  Ignore them.

How do I get on a wholesale list?
