What was your first deal like? How did you get it and how long did it take you? Did you celebrate after that first big check or did you put it right back in the business?

Hearing peoples stories like these motivate me and I’m sure a lot of other people as well so please everyone feel free to share!!

@John Thedford technically wouldn’t the house belong to you after they signs the rights to it over under contract until it gets sold or the contract expires? Sorry for the newbie question just trying to get this right

I have heard a bunch of times that wholesaling without a real estate license is completely legal if done correctly with the right contract. And i have also seen on here numerous times that wholesaling without a license is NOT legal. Which one is it?

@James Wise i greatly appreciate the advice and will definitely use it. But with all do respect it is proven to work, right? and i hear of people know people that are very upfront with the owner about the process. And they simply do t care from what I’ve heard they just want their problems solved. I fully believe it is not as effective as having a license but saying it doesn’t work is a pretty bold statement. Is that a fact?

And wouldn’t you say that some real estate investors or fix and flippers simply don’t care because in the end they are all making money on the deal? And i’m fully aware you are way more knowledgeable on the subject just trying to figure it out exactly. Not really in the position to be able to get a license unfortunately.

Who here is a full time wholesaler? If you could go back to the past and talk to the ‘you’ that was JUST starting out before having closed your first deal, what would you tell yourself knowing everything you know today? Your best tips, tricks, and advice. the must-do’s and the must-don’ts of wholesaling! All comments are welcomed!!
