@Shelly Scruggs There are several ways to turn a Wholesale listing:CraigslistBP PostsREI Groups or BoardsBandit SignsThrough other WholesalersNetworkingRealtorsor even attend auctions (tax and foreclosure) and see who it buying up houses, approach them, find out the types of properties they are interested, get their card, email them a report when you are ready to sell.These are just a few ways to wholesale and build your list.

You also need some business cards that have a couple things for you to write in manually like your phone number but not your cell phone number.Another thing you should consider, depending on your financial worthm, is to form some sort of corporation or a LLC,  Expect that most banks are against doing a loan that not in your name, even a transfer.
