Post: Is it Possible to Wholesale an on Market Deal?

You can wholesale on market deals, yes. There's a bit more to it since it's on the market and your investor could see the property themselves by searching it but as long as it's a good deal and you found it, it may not matter. You're almost bird dogging the property for them. Regarding getting it under contract, you may have to be upfront with the realtor about what you're doing to an extent but it can certainly be done if you ask the realtor to represent you as the buyer, if your state allows it, it's a good way to get tight with realtors when doing on market deals.

Join a facebook wholesale group for your target market, find post of listings and reach out to the ones giving their emails out. Or put out a post requesting for buyers to email you or message you if they are looking for deals in your market. As far as locating hot areas no one is going to tell you that. You're going to have to find that on your own as that means more competition for the people working those areas. There are videos on youtube that can help you find hot markets in your area based on home sales within zip codes.

Thank you Jerryll and Joe! I've seen each of you post around BP debunking the need of a paid guru/mentor. I'm glad I followed that advice. I do believe that if you're good at something never do it for free but these gurus are more than happy to take hundreds to thousands of dollars from individuals to teach them things that anyone can find for free or learn on their own. From what I've found you're better off networking and asking questions. There is no "easy" button and not everyone's coaching applies.

Very true and sometimes you just straight up can't find the answer you're looking for. If you do find someone that you feel comfortable using I hope it works out. I just know a lot of wholesalers will advise against paying a mentor when a ton of information is out there for free, you just have to find it and apply it.

Hi Christian, 

There are a lot of gurus out there that are more than willing to charge you for something that you can find, research and educate yourself on for free. If you're looking for someone to hold your hand through your first deal that's not what you're going to get by paying someone. Use whatever money you were going to spend on a mentor towards marketing and getting your business set up. Learn by doing. As someone just starting myself don't hesitate to reach out and we can colab together to get going.

Hey Ryan, could you pm the info for the VA you use for your cold calling?
