Hey there Jayson, I agree with Luke, one of the best ways to find a wholesaler is to call the "We Buy Houses" signs. Also look for ads on the free classified sites like 'Craig's List' that say things like "cash buyers only." When you call these numbers and a seasoned wholesaler answers the phone, if you sound like you are an experienced investor you will more than likely be invited to be placed on their "buyer's-list." Jayson please do not let the "all wholesaler's are not created equal" stuff scare you. That statement is true for any and all professions and that includes our licensed doctors, lawyers, police officers, local mayors and heck the president of the United States too. I am a full-service property wholesaler myself. My buyers are my bread & butter and I therefore treat them as such. While my buyer's are hard at work, running their businesses, playing golf, or just spending some quality time with the fam, I'm out there scouring the neighborhoods and communities for their next deeply discounted investment deal. That's just what we do! I practically eliminate their time consuming need to search for and negotiate with home sellers all together. I notify my buyers via phone, text, or email of the new deals that I pick up about a week before the general public even know the deals exist. In my opinion the more good wholesalers that you have in your repertoire the more you will be leveraging yourself to find the best deals, in the shortest amount of time, with the least amount of effort. In closing I personally think that one of the best ways to find yourself a good wholesaler is through good referrals from good colleagues/investors like Russ. And last but not least, as with anything that you invest your valuable time and finances in, always, always, do your own do-diligence!
Much Success!!
