At least, that's what is being touted in the weekly Podcasts.I tried wholesaling for about a year - no go- same as flipping no individual or bank is going to let me put a property under contract without 3% - which is an enormous amount in SB.

@Zach Hoereth  the reason your all of  a sudden seeing this is there is a book on BP touting this.while in theory it works in practice its by far the most risky thing and investor can do and a beginning investor takes HUGE risks.. as we are now seeing since it became a soup d jour.not only the buying and rehabbing of he asset but the frustrations of getting the refi.this is an old strategy its nothing new and certainly a great one for locals who have their go to contractors and get the better buys..Lots of folks taking on risk just to try to have zero money in a rental that throws off 100 or 200 a month.. 

HAR still touting record number sales but its happening only certain local markets. 

I'll give it a go.1) Sure, that sort of referral has been touted by David Green on the podcast multiple times... rockstars know rockstars.2) For Indianapolis, look here: https://www.indy.gov/activity/licensed-contractors. 

T OUT OF MY HOUSE.   

The speaker touted an organization called  Novogradac as a good source of information about Opportunity Zones.

I saw another article on another clickbait site touting Newark as like the second best city to invest in.

Even adding other minor monthly 'debt' like cell phone bill, utilities, etc, it doesn't move the needle much.Most scenarios that tout 30yr over 15yr use a very similar interest rate in comparison, however we're talking almost a complete point difference. 

When market is top cycle the sellers have lot's of more options out there with buyers and capital in the marketplace wanting to purchase.Of course the people selling course will tout they had great success etc. but will gloss over or fail to mention their examples were at  a unique time in the cycle and doing that same thing today will be very tough.

The folks touting their greatness are almost always the ones selling them.
