Took my chance the first time in 2017 and never looked back.My transaction was always one property into multiple.

I read Brian’s book and still learned more than a few things.  

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?

I booked two properties in Ocklawaha (being constructed by Elite Builders) via B2RDirect back in Sept 2021. 

In addition, committing ~ $200K requires some level of sophistication on the part of the investor and you are more likely to find someone to agree to your terms in smaller transaction sizes, but even that will be difficult. 

Real estate transactions with non-profit organizations like nursing homes or religious entities can indeed be unique, but they’re often manageable with the right approach.

However if you are getting the buyer yourself and need an agent to draft paperwork and work as a "transaction broker" - I charge 1% or $3000, whichever is greater. 

I realize people are trying to make a living, but anyone who cold calls me is the last person I'd use for any transaction (plus I have people for that!).  

We have over 20k in bookings on our Pigeon Forge Cabin for December so far.

@Michael BaumEvery property we ever stayed at had a physical book so yes - it definitely suffices.
