You see people talk about multi family bc it's the hot cool thing on social media(in my opinion) you can get great deals on single-family.

Hey @Schneur Polter - I have a few videos and blog posts about this on my socials (just google ClosedByMo). 

If you already have a group of investors you work with, understanding their capital reserves, risk tolerance, timelines on return, and various other factors to help you understand what properties will be good deals for them and should help you narrow down your scope.When thinking about what tools to use, think about what you need to get done.As a wholesaler you will need to find leads on potential investments, run numbers on investments, put together investment packages for your investors, etc.Lead Generation:- Can be done on MLS, Auction sites, etc but remember competition will be high here- Pre foreclosure lists- Drive for Dollars- Social Media Campaigns - Billboards & signsProperty / Market Due Diligence:- Bigger Pockets Tools- Air DNA- Reventure App If you would like to connect and discuss in detail I would be happy to brainstorm.Good luck

Your repercussion has already happened.People who sue HUD, sue all of us.Able people who accept sec 8, landlord or tenant, are abusing an otherwise noble social program, if they position themselves to qualify as a financial strategy, rather than qualifying for reasons of bad luck.

I see a lot of folks mentioning on social media (more Facebook than here) that they wish someone would let them intern for free as a cohost.
