Quote from @Stephen E Drew:
Hello Everyone. I was hoping to talk to any of you amazing seasoned investors about wholesaling. I have been debating on buying a wholesale course online with Brent Daniels who seems to have a great thing going on in his community. I realized that I should reach out to everyone here in hopes for some help before I spend $6,800 on his course/community.
I would love to begin wholesaling properties in my area. I have 10,000% ambition and drive to make all of the calls and to do all of the work. I unfortunately am lacking knowledge and I was hoping for a little bit of help there.
1) What is the best place to pull a list from, and then I realize that skip-tracing might be very helpful to pull phone numbers from there ?
1.a) I have been driving for dollars. I will always write down a property that looks in distress and look it up when I get home. I then try to find the owner online and call them
2) I have already made some cold calls with no success, but I am worried about being successful without understanding the process of what to do after I secure a purchase agreement
3) I feel like.. there is a contract out there for Wholesaling that would benefit me to have. A contract that has all parties needs in order, and one that protects me if I am not able to find an end buyer.
To anyone who reads this. Please understand that I am COMPLETELY committed to making this my full time occupation..coupled with long term investments (I have one at the moment). I would love and respect any feedback from everyone and I wish you all a fantastic start to your weeks.
I'll save you all the trouble. Go to FlipwithRick on Youtube, and he has a free wholesale course and all of his content on high-quality, value-packed content. Go binge, watch everything on his channel, and get the book "If you can't wholesale after this, then I've got nothing for you" You don't need to spend that 6k unless you have another 6k+ to go towards marketing and operation. Pull a list from the county you're in or where ever your market is; use Batchleads, https://geopointdata.com/, Listsource. Skiptracing: Batchskiptracing, SkipGenie, REISkip- If you got a budget for it, I would send out mailers to a short list. Figure out the best strategy for you, not every body is going to want to cold call, but I recommend it. Whichever strategy you use, stick to it for six months to get traction. I hope this helped.
