Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I think wholesaling is a great entry point into real estate because you are forced to underwrite and find your own deals. 

Stay disciplined with your numbers, build relationships with local investors and agents, and be patient, good deals will come with persistence and the right approach.Good luck!

I am an investor and real estate agent in Gulf Shores / Orange Beach and would be glad to help in anyway that I can. 

I am doing my own thing now but give a lot of credit to Lee, Gary etc.  

The feedback seems a bit general or maybe you just condensed it for the post...If not, I'd personally have a chat with your agent about what they are asking in those follow-up questions and hope they are assertively making those follow-up phone calls with your showings.

I’m also glad the FCC is cracking down on robocalls for lead generation; it forces people to commit to real prospecting instead of cutting corners.Over the years, I’ve run a solid brokerage team, training agents and now I help people get into wholesaling.

If a home was previusly owned and lived in by a famous person, does it add much value? 

To get started, connect with a knowledgeable real estate agent and lender, practice analyzing deals, and network through local investor meetups.
