Hello!

My husband and I are looking to flip our first house and we were wondering if there are any local Milwaukee wholesalers in the area that have any good leads?

thanks!

Welcome to BP! As in any business, you will need to split test your marketing efforts. Keep track of what is working and what isn't and adapt and adjust your marketing.

Reach out to Bankruptcy attorneys, probate attorneys and other tradesman to try to get leads.

I also have a saying, you don't find a great deal you make a great deal. Work on your "Sales and Negotiating techniques".

Good Luck and look forward to hearing about your success!

Thanks for the great advice!

Welcome to the group @Tyeesha Bradley ! What areas are you trying to wholesale in? Maybe look at communities that are growing or that are desireable to live in where people are buying. Reach out to realtors like @Ramon Jenkins and they could let you know which areas of the state have been selling faster than others.

Have you tried talking to those investors who buy homes and see what their criteria is or where they are buying?

I have not asked the criteria question yet - I will have to ask next time I go to the local milwaukee REIA. We are focusing close to home central Milwaukee county

If you're not sure if something is a deal or a waste of time, you can post it on the Bigger Pockets site and there are a number of people available to help you evaluate it. If you want a local eye, be sure to @ me on the post and I can weigh in. Always glad to help out! :)

awesome - thanks!

Welcome @Tyeesha Bradley what are you currently doing, and what kind of results do you want to see. Are you Direct mailing to motivated sellers, are you Door Knocking, or Driving for dollars. If so where are you getting your mailing lists? Why are you knocking on the doors, that you choose to knock on? Why are you driving the areas you are.

To answer your first question - we mostly do direct mailing. We get our lists from the Circuit Courts website. We target evictions mostly, but we have done probates and pre-foreclosure in the past. We choose them because we are trying to look at landlords mostly.

Hi Tyeesha Bradley if the wholesaling is not working maybe you can give some details about why you think it's not working.

The quality of the leads probably, on our letters we probably get maybe 5 calls a week and most of those aren't motivated to sell or if they are, they owe to much to property taxes - it's also really difficult to see if a property is a deal or just a waste of time.

Hello @Tyeesha Bradley and welcome to Bigger Pockets! Have you considered networking with other wholesalers in the area?

Hello - we go to the local Milwaukee REIA group, but not very many people respond to to the properties that we sell. We tried to mentor with a couple wholesalers, but they didn't seem to have time to really teach us. The only thing we have been doing is bird-dogging short sale leads.
